| Nov 23, 2017 at 15:25 | comment | added | Can Poyrazoğlu | @JakubSrnka of course it's a security settings and IMO it's a good one. However, constantly asking every time after the first one decreases user experience. | |
| Nov 23, 2017 at 12:09 | comment | added | Jakub Srnka | It is a security setting. It is there because it wouldn't be hard to make a webpage that opens a lot of apps at the same time and crashes your computer. That's why it's there. | |

| Jun 4, 2017 at 3:40 | comment | added | JohnEDee | Thanks for the hint, Luc. Unfortunately the URL is for our end-users to click in an email to open FileMaker, and there's no way to have that trigger an open command in Terminal. | |

| Jun 2, 2017 at 23:03 | comment | added | user123861 | @JohnEDee It may not help you but note that using the "open" command on the Terminal should work around this warning message: open fmp://xxxxxx | |

| Feb 6, 2017 at 20:43 | comment | added | JohnEDee | Same problem here. This seems to be a new security feature that doesn't have an obvious pref to turn it off, and the answer isn't "sticky": it asks every time. We use this feature internally to launch FileMaker (with an "fmp://" URL) for our users via a URL, so this is disruptive and we'd like to turn it off, at least for FileMaker. | |

| Dec 28, 2016 at 23:01 | comment | added | Can Poyrazoğlu | I mean just once at the first time might be a good feature, but how is this even a "feature" when it repeatedly asks every time I use the same app on even the same site! | |
| Dec 28, 2016 at 21:50 | comment | added | Jordan Reed | Looks like macOS 10.12.2 Update caused this security setting in Safari. I swapped to Firefox to avoid it for now. Using spctl to sign Vuze didn't fix it. | |
| Dec 28, 2016 at 6:33 | comment | added | Jordan Reed | Same thing is now happening for me with Vuze - would love to be able to stop it. | |
