Error "This app is not optimized for your mac"

Hi all,

when starting some programms my mac often throws the error message "diese App ist für Deinen Mac nicht optimiert" "this app is not optimized for your mac". But the program starts regular, and is running stable.


So what will this ugly and annoying message say?

Hi Christian Stueben,


in addition to etresoft's reply:


your Mac, running macOS 10.13.x, is telling you that you've obviously tried to open a 32-bit app for the first time since you've updated your OS.

Take a look in 32-bit app compatibility with macOS High Sierra 10.13.4 - Apple Support.


Hope I could help.


Cheers

Yes, thank you.

Meanwhile i myself found that the affected programms are 32 bit.


Unfortunately this message seems to pop up only once, and i dont remember which programms all have thrown them.


So it will get difficulty to make a "to-do-64-bit" list to replace all old 32 bit programms before apple switches to 64bit-only.


Is there a "rest switch" for this messsage, so that osx will show them a second - third - fourth ... time?
