Important Note for MacOS Users : On MacOS, DCW currently has limitations on how it is invoked. Following instructions will help you to run DCW successfully on MacOS,
 
  1. Check if MacOS system has Oracle JDK installed.
        2.  Open a terminal window, navigate to the unzipped folder and launch DCW application by running ./dcw
        3.  If you receive system error about '"dcw" cannot be opened because…' then go to System Preferences, Security & Privacy all allow dcw to run as app. In the Terminal window again execute ./dcw to launch DCW application.
 
 Known Issue : 
  •  On MacOS, Top level menu options of DCW are disabled                
     Workaround : If top level menu options are disabled, shift focus on a different window and come back to DCW.
  • For the DCW application launch issue with macOS version 10.15 (Catalina), Please refer <DCW Install Dir>/Readme.txt file in the DCW Mac package.
