New Macs – Unzip Omnis

For 20 years we installed our Omnis product on the Mac by Zipping Up a complete folder containing our product and unzipping it into the Applications Folder of a Mac Computer.

The newest version of Mac OS however seems to be locking the files in some way when they are Unzipped so that Omnis will not run. Get a few errors about how it cannot access the icon files and things like that and then it shuts down. I have tried resetting read write status of the folder and files individually and cannot seem to get it to work. I am not even sure what it thinks is wrong.

What we have had to resort to is unzipping the program on an older OS version and then copying it directly over the network to the local computer or using a flash drive to move it. It then works fine.

Does anyone know what the unzip process is doing that could account for this?
