#215 windres fails, "developer could not be verified"
I just downloaded a copy of launch4j 3.14 to a Mac running the latest Big Sur (11.6). I then tried to a build process that works on another Mac on which I installed 3.14 back in mid-June. Unfortunately it does not work, and instead I get a warning dialog stating that:
"windres" cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified. macOS cannot verify that this app is free from malware.
The only options offered are "Move to Trash" or "Cancel".
Got launch4j to work by going into its bin directory and manually telling the system to allow windres and ld to run. (Control-click on each, select Open, click Allow in the dialog that appears.)
I don't recall having to do this with prior installs of launch4j, but it's been just long enough that maybe I'm forgetting.
