The xattr trick worked--no more nag screen. Thank you Dr M.

Ah, yes. Get rid of those attributes. Why didn’t I think of that? Thank you!

Fred, That error message (about moving your app) is the one I wrote into the program when macOS reports a more incomprehensible message. The app has always worked correctly when I moved it, but if not, try this:

Open a macOS terminal. Type in

xattr -rc

and then - this step is VERY important!!!!! - type a space after “minus rc”!!

Then drag the whole application into the terminal window. When the address of the application appears on the command line, press Enter.
