Installer for macOS fails to launch the first time

When launching the installer on macOS for the first time, you'll get the "This file has been downloaded from the internet" prompt.

Pressing "OK" is remembered, but the first launch doesn't do anything. Opening "Install itch.app" a second time does work.

Overriding the default directory in installer-based games causes issues on computers with multiple user accounts.

In short: InnoSetup installers set up Start Menu and Desktop shortcuts. If a game using an InnoSetup installer is installed via the itch app, on the same computer, but with two different Windows accounts, one will override the other.

Note that you can work around this by having both itch installs use the same install location.
