Settings file
On first run, MASSO Link creates MASSO_Link.dat in the same folder as the app and shows a confirmation. It stores the machine name, MASSO IP address and window position, so keep it with the app.
MASSO Link v2.14 and earlier
Older versions are unsigned and Intel-only. We recommend updating to v2.15. If you need an older version, the first launch differs:
- On Apple Silicon, install Rosetta if macOS asks, then open the app again.
- macOS says the developer cannot be verified. Click Cancel.
- Open System Preferences → Security & Privacy (on newer macOS: System Settings → Privacy & Security).
- Next to the message that MASSO Link was blocked, click Open Anyway, then close the window.
- Double-click MASSO Link again and click OK. You only need to do this once.
