DSx desktop was installed to the Application Folder. When I try to start DSx I get only an emty window. The log shows the attached entry. What should I do?

@torstenandrecht Here are few solutions listed in this issue: I am referencing the fix from this github issue: sparkle-project/Sparkle#936
CMD+drag (so that it moves the app instead of making a shortcut) the app back to the downloads folder and then drag it back to the applications folder.
or,
1. Quit App
2. Run command: xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Your.app
3. Re-launch app
@sahilshah2211 Both options are not working. I also deleted IBM DSX Desktpm and installed it again. What else can I do?
@sahilshah2211 What is your recommendation?
@sahilshah2211 Could you please help here?
@torstenandrecht The easier way to fix it would be to do a clean uninstall from the app and get the latest dmg from https://datascience.ibm.com/desktop.
After trying this out can you send the Log file (Help->Open log folder). This will help us debug your update issue.
@sahilshah2211 The uninstallation of /Users//Library/Application Support/ibm-dsx-desktop solved my re-installation problem. I suggest to add an uninstall procedure to the DSX Desktop package that removes that folder during uninstallation
