Hello Everyone,

I would backup my photograph's today and i always use FFS for this job, so i started the program.
A notification told me there was an update, so i downloaded the update (8.6) witch is compatible with my operating system Mac OS (Sierra 10.12.1).

I did extract the zip en would start the program. I clicked the icon and got an warning that it is an program downloaded from internet, i click open:

Then there happens nothing, i tried different things:

- Delete the program and re download it several times.
- Restart the computer.

Sometimes i got the popup^ but when i click "open" there happens nothing unfortunately..

Can someone tell me how i can fix this problem ? Ill would love to use FFS again ;-)

Greetz,
Mark !

Could be an unmet library dependency. Can you try to start FreeFileSync via command line and see if the console prints out some error message?
 cd FreeFileSync.app/Contents/MacOS/
./FreeFileSync
