i keep getting “Charles.app” is damaged and can’t be opened. You should move it to the Trash. OSX 10.13.6

@si458 That's cause there was a mistaken branch merge, using the same crack I provided for version 4.2.6.

Use this instead : Correct Working Code

@si458 in your terminal run sudo spctl --master-disable and try running it again, should be fixed.

I don't really know the specifics, I just know it works.

@si458 did the disabling command not work tho ?

HeIp avatar Sep 24 '18 15:09 HeIp

@HeIp i refuse to disable any security on my mac so i dont no im sorry...

si458 avatar Sep 24 '18 15:09 si458

@si458 It's fine, no problem

ok i discovered the issue, apple is marking the file as quarantine, and failing to open it, but if you REMOVE the xattr after you first try to open it, it then works without any issue

SiMacBookPro:Applications Simon$ xattr Charles.app/
com.apple.quarantine
SiMacBookPro:Applications Simon$ xattr -d com.apple.quarantine Charles.app/
SiMacBookPro:Applications Simon$

@HeIp i have also discovered another issue...

1. download the update from there website
2. copy it to applications
3. run the hack.sh file
4. DAMAGED

BUT do this in this order

1. download the update from there website
2. copy it to applications
3. run the application ONCE AND QUIT
4. run the hack.sh file
5. works without any issue! 

this is due to the gatekeeper and the quarantine...
