First launch

The builds aren’t signed with a paid Apple Developer ID or Windows code-signing certificate (the macOS app is ad-hoc signed, the Windows .exe is unsigned), so the OS warns you the first time you open each new version:

  • macOS: “Salaryman Asset Manager can’t be opened” (or “Apple could not verify…”). Click Done, open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down and click Open Anyway next to the app, then confirm. On macOS 14 and earlier you can also Control-click the app and choose Open. From Terminal, xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/Salaryman Asset Manager.app" does the same.
  • Windows: SmartScreen shows “Windows protected your PC”. Click More info, then Run anyway. The publisher shows as “Unknown”.
  • Linux: no warning.

To check that a download is intact, compare its SHA-256 with SHA256SUMS.txt on the release page: shasum -a 256 <zip> on macOS, sha256sum <zip> on Linux, Get-FileHash <zip> in PowerShell on Windows.

Once the app opens, it shows an empty library with a drop zone. Add your first library to fill it.
