App cannot be opened. Finder shows an error The application “MelonLoader Installer.app” can’t be opened. while open command shows the following error message.

> open /Applications/MelonLoader\ Installer.app
The application cannot be opened for an unexpected reason, error=Error Domain=RBSRequestErrorDomain Code=5 "Launch failed." UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=Launch failed., NSUnderlyingError=0x600002359770 {Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=111 "Unknown error: 111" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Launchd job spawn failed}}}

This is due to missing permissions. Can be fixed by adding executable permission to the app binary.

chmod +x "/Applications/MelonLoader Installer.app/MelonLoader.Installer.MacOS"

Also needs to be unquarantined, this is normal for unsigned apps downloaded from the internet, will always be required unless signed with a paid Apple developer account.

xattr -d com.apple.quarantine -r "/Applications/MelonLoader Installer.app"
