WA Mac problem

Postby StellaGlam » Sat Dec 20, 2025 3:35 pm

Hello //MWOMWO" I'm trying to reinstall the game for the new launcher and it's not working. When I enter the command "chmod +x WinxAdventureGameMac" it tells me there's no file or directory, but I've definitely put the game on my desktop and the tutorial has always worked until now :(

(Update: I tried installing it on another mac that was update (unlike mine) and it didn't work either)

Hi! zao_zao
The issue is that WinxAdventureGameMac is not the executable file, it’s the app bundle name. That command used to work before, but it no longer applies to the current build.

What you need to do instead is:

Go into the app’s executable folder:

Code: Select all
cd ~/Desktop/WinxAdventureGameMac.app/Contents/MacOS/



Check the actual executable name:

Code: Select all
ls



You should see:

WinxAdventureGame


Make the executable runnable:

Code: Select all
chmod +x WinxAdventureGame



Remove macOS security quarantine:

Code: Select all
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine ~/Desktop/WinxAdventureGameMac.app



Launch the game:

Code: Select all
./WinxAdventureGame



The reason you’re getting “No such file or directory” is because macOS is looking for a file called WinxAdventureGameMac, which doesn’t exist inside the app anymore. The executable name has changed, so the old command no longer works.

This is not related to macOS version — it happens because the update replaced the binary and reset permissions.
Let me know if it works /flowerpower/
