MacOS 15 Install Blocked

[DS256]

I downloaded and tried to install the .PKG but the following error came up and blocked installation 'Apple could not verify "ExifTool-13.13.pkg" is free of malware that may harm your Mac or compromise your privacy.'

I found this article on how to allow the installation to proceed. Note, it is multi step.

• With the error window open, go to Privacy & Security. The prompt Open Anyway is only presented while the error window is open
• You then need to close the error window and open the .PKG a second time. I believe this may present a second error or an additional choice to install anyway.

While I'm impressed with the MAC OS on my MAC MINI, it is definitely set up for users and not developers.

I believe this is covered under the Mac OS section of the Install Page.

For MacOS 15, open the "Privacy & Security" settings and find the "Open Anyway" button in the Security section
