Problem loading STM32CubeMX on Mac

Hello,

I am trying to install STM32CubeMX IDE on my MAC, and I get the following message:

"This package is incompatible with this version of macOS.

The package is trying to install content to the system volume. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance."

I am using MAC OS 10.15 Catalina on a 2018 MAC Mini, and the system volume is the only choice given to me for installation location. Is this a known issue with CubeMX-Catalina? Is there a workaround?

Thanks

Check out how here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NuYNmxmJKjU

TLDR:

  1. in Terminal, try opening the .app first. Probably won't work
  2. open the .exe in java:
$ open ./SetupSTM32CubeMX-5.5.0.app/
LSOpenURLsWithRole() failed with error -10810 for the file /Users/kevinandersen/Downloads/en-2/SetupSTM32CubeMX-5.5.0.app.
$ java -jar ./SetupSTM32CubeMX-5.5.0.exe

Should open the install dialogue.

Thank you KAnde. I gave up about four months ago and just continue using Mbed IDE. Consequently, I haven't checked this site for several months. Anyway, I will give your suggestions a try.

Thank you very much for your time.
