MCL-14056Multi user installation does not work. Only one user can run Minecraft Launcher
Hi,
When i have installed Minecraft Launcher from Minecraft.dmg installer by dragging it into the MacOS Applications folder, all things seems to work as expected. I was able to run the application and play minecraft without any problems.
However when i switch to another operating system user and try to run the minecraft launcher, an error occures. A message "Unable to start Minecraft, if you are running from a dmg, please drag to Applications and try again". If i return to the first os user which i discribed it works properly.
I have found a non user friendly solution, by re-installing the launcher with the dmg every time i need to switch user. But it's still very tedious.
Thanks for your help,
Environment
