Trouble opening eclipse on Macbook [message #1844425]

Hello! I recently downloaded eclipse on my Mackbook air for my java class and every time I try opening it says "You do not have permission to open the application "Eclipse"." I already tried changing the permission settings, reinstalling eclipse, restarting my mac, shutting it down, and running my mac on diagnostics mode. I read online that this issue might be due to the recent macOS update to Big Sur. If anyone has a solution, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hello

Usually this happened when you change Info.plist, eclipse.ini or other file inside Eclipse.app directory

Open terminal
Go to folder where your Eclipse.app is located

Execute the next commands:

xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine Eclipse.app
codesign --remove-signature Eclipse.app

After this you will be able to run Eclipse
