Notarize Helper Stack in LC lesson updated

Tue Mar 29 01:51:41 EDT 2022

Used MrSign and made successful notarised .pkg

Works fine on my machine but when I emailed a beta tester the .pkg it showed delevoper unidentifiable message and com.apple.installer.pagecontroller error -1

Any idea ?

Regards
Camm
