Scratch 2.0 Offline Editor - Doesn't allow opening the editor
My browser / operating system: MacOS Macintosh 12.6, Chrome 105.0.0.0, No Flash versions detectedWhen I was installing the editor (with the MacOS X version), when it was launching, it didn't allow it! For an unknown creator. So, can you fix it S.T. (Scratch Team)?

It sounds like your computer thought the files were a security risk since it didn't know who created it. I would help with this but I don't know much about Apple systems, but there is another way you can use 2.0:
1. Download the standalone Flash Player here, make sure you choose the right file for your system, in this case it is Macintosh. You also just need the Flash Player Projector, not the Flash Player Projector Content Debugger.
2. Then download the Scratch 2.0 SWF here.
3. Now you need to run/install the Flash Player, so try opening your file and follow the installation instructions if asked.
4. When you get into the player, press File > Open, and press the Browse… button. Look for the .swf file you just downloaded, and select it.
Now you can use Scratch 2.0! If you want to open Scratch 2.0 again, just repeat step 4.

Please don't remove the automatic browser/OS info after making a new Bugs and Glitches forum post, that information really helps a lot!
(unless you are reporting from a different device, then you should specify what device, OS, and browser you have)
