Hotfix 27.2.2 problem

I am getting "Archicad 27” is damaged and can’t be opened. You should move it to the Trash" after installing the 27.2.2 Hotfix.  What should I do to remedy this seemingly dire situation?  Intuition tells me to reload the the original install and apply the Hotfix again. The only help the internet has provided for a solution less than that, seems a be questionable.  Thanks

This happened to me and the only solution was to "uninstall" and reinstall.

Yep. Decided to go that route shortly after posting.  I actually wasn’t as painful as I was expecting.  Took care of the problem in short order. Thanks for responding though!

Over the weekend, I installed the Ac27.3.0 INT Preview version update, and after installing the update and launching Archicad, no user interface appeared. Archicad loaded and I could see the Archicad window (I am under Windows 10), but only a gray background was shown, and no interface elements were displayed - no menu, no Floor Plan Window, no toolbars, nothing. I had to uninstall it. So, I just reinstalled Ac27 build 3001 for now.

Has anyone experienced something similar?

Anyway, I will report this to GS HQ.

I had the same problem. Reinstalled previous build too.
