how to run plugins on new Mac

Some people found that for new Mac OS there is an issue to detect and run the DLL (plugins), which is due to the OS's gatekeeper

You may disable it by typing at a command line Terminal window

>> sudo spctl --master-disable

and, of course you may need to reboot the computer after running the mentioned command.

After the reboot, if right-clicking on Vaa3D executable does not bringing up the plugins , you may need to go to command line to run vaa3d likle the following:

>> /Applications/Vaa3d_V3.458_MacOSX10.9.5_64bit/vaa3d64.app/Contents/MacOS/vaa3d64

This works on several recent Mac OS updates, including the latest Mac OS Catalina 10.15.3 .

I have been having this issue where for my Mac, giving this command yields the result "Permission Denied" in my terminal. How do I circumvent this?

well, change the security setting in your control panel to allow 3rd program.
