@jeshwanthshivasai Please read https://www.darktable.org/install/#macos
@jeshwanthshivasai Please close the issue if the advice from the download page helped you get darktable running. Report here if it didn't help.
this time installed with homebrew and still the same issue from the context menu as well
@jeshwanthshivasai you need to open the terminal and follow the installation steps to remove the quarantine flag.

is it really required? i have installed several other open source apps but never did that step. anyways thanks!

@jeshwanthshivasai I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "it". If you're asking whether you need to uncheck the quarantine property via a terminal command, then no, that's not the only way. Apple offers a way to do it via the GUI: https://support.apple.com/en-us/102445#openanyway

Well, it's simple, you can help make this step unnecessary for darktable too if you want. That would be a nice support for darktable.
