The first trick works for WinBox 3.7 on Mac [download], the second doesn’t.
First trick:
To override your security settings and open the app anyway:
In the Finder, locate the app you want to open.
Don’t use Launchpad to do this. Launchpad doesn’t allow you to access the shortcut menu.
Press the Control key and click the app icon, then choose Open from the shortcut menu.
Click Open.
The app is saved as an exception to your security settings, and you can open it in the future by double-clicking it just as you can any registered app.
Second trick:
Note: Another way to grant an exception for a blocked app is to click the “Open Anyway” button on the Security pane of System Preferences. This button is available for about an hour after you try to open the app.To open this pane, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Security & Privacy.

I have the Atom editor and was wondering how you can open a file or folder from the terminal in Atom. I am using a Mac. I am looking for a way to do this: atom . (opens folder) atom file.js (
The answer to it isn’t any good any more (since then, Atom has evolved), but this comment works splendid:
I solved the issue by choosing “Install Shell Commands” under the “Atom” menu.
It will add a script in /usr/local/bin/atom that starts Atom with the parameters you entered.

We thought one of our Macs was compromised, but it wasn’t: it had too many web browsers open so it was crawling like a snake.
The below terminal commands and EtreCheck [Source: etresoft/EtreCheck: Source code for EtreCheck] helped to find out what was running:
kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}'

Just in case you have this driver installed:
$ kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}'
com.bresink.driver.BRESINKx86Monitoring (9.0)
[WayBack] Hardware Monitor Help shows how to remove it:
- Ensure you are logged in as user with administrative rights.
- Use the Finder to open the folder Library at the topmost level of your system volume, and inside it, the folder StartupItems. If the driver is still installed, you will see the folder BRESINKx86Monitoring at this location.
- Drag the folder BRESINKx86Monitoring to the Trash. OS X may ask for your administrator password.

I had the same issue as in sleep wake – Macbook Air – battery drains while sleeping (but not when shut down) – Ask Different which suddenly introduced itself in April 2016 after I had been running El Capitan (OS X 10.11) for a while.
The Mac didn’t have PowerNap active as I verified using How Power Nap works on your Mac – Apple Support
At first it looked like an SMC reset worked as explained by Reset the System Management Controller (SMC) on your Mac – Apple Support and mentioned in Mac Air loses 90% of battery overnight when in … | Apple Support Communities.
The Mac is indeed running Chrome, but I don’t like to turn that off before sleeping.
Executing pmset -g would show hibernatemode 3.
So I opted for the hibernate option as mentioned in the first link:
sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 25
This will take a bit longer to restore the memory from hibernate state, but saves a lot of frustration.
