what was working, afterwards I was running this:
brew install upx
But then I am getting this answer:
==> Searching for similarly named formulae...
Error: No similarly named formulae found.
Error: No available formula or cask with the name "upx".
==> Searching for a previously deleted formula (in the last month)...
Error: No previously deleted formula found.
==> Searching taps on GitHub...
Error: No formulae found in taps.
What have I done wrong?

same here
Drag the app to your "Applications" folder
Open Terminal
Type "sudo chmod -R 755"
Find the app that you want to open and drag and drop it into Terminal, and then it should look something like this:
5. Click Enter
6. Go to the app and right-click on it, and then click "Open"
7. It may give you an error message, just click "Open" again
This worked for me, and I hope it helps!

chmod [-fhv] [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-a | +a | =a [i][# [ n]]] mode|entry file ...
chmod [-fhv] [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-E | -C | -N | -i | -I] file ...
Its showing me this after entering the above command
Trying to open xf-adsk20.app and still having trouble to open on Big Sur. Nothing has worked here.
anything extra that I can try ?
This is only a workaround, as macOS does report it to be a universal app, and it should run natively on M1. But when I look at the file with the "file" command-line program, it reports a "Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures: [x86_64:Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64] [arm64e:Mach-O 64-bit executable arm64e]". This seems to be the root of the problem, as non-Apple arm64e apps aren't currently supported on M1 systems without jumping through hoops. But this is getting well beyond my wheelhouse.
Right click on the application. E.g., HP Easy Start
Select "New Terminal at folder"
At the Terminal command line, type chmod -R 777 .
4. you should able to execute the application by now
no need chmod 777 . or something....
This workes fine for me :)
It all depends on the extraction method. i was using winzip and then use the unarchiver method to unzip the app and that´s it. it worked for me. i hope this solves a problem to anyone.
sudo /usr/sbin/softwareupdate --install-rosetta
Code Block sudo chmod -R 755 <file path>
has worked by my side

THIS is the only that worked for me. Follow it exactly and do not assume that you already tried it. Note: you CANNOT do this sudo chmod -R 755 followed by the file path all in one command. That didn't work for me. On a whim, I tried using cd to get to the file path in terminal, and then doing the chmod. That worked.
The Desktop, Documents, and Downloads directories have some additional rules. If your executable is located in one of these places, see if moving it will help.
Even if the main Mach object is a universal format with ARM and Intel, it may be that some of the embedded frameworks don't contain ARM version. I had some programs with this situation try to run using ARM because the main program was universal but then fail to open when it tried to load the frameworks.
Make sure that it runs on an Intel MacOS system. There were some changes with Big Sur, and you want to make sure it isn't those issues burning you rather than the ARM/Intel issue.
Make sure that try setting the file to use Rosetta using the options in "get info" in the finder.
Some of the options for granting the programs privileges won't allow the privileges to be executed until you have run the program. For example, some programs won't let you read or write the Desktop or Documents directory. However, after you have read and written files in other directories, it will let you add privileges. Note that a program that contains a save or open panel that allows all directories will sometimes need privileges even if you aren't using those directories at the time.
Please note that having 777 permissions on the files and directories will not grant you full privileges. There are other rules that do not belong to the rwx (read, write, execute) security domain.
There have also been with network attached shares. Some programs will treat networked attached files differently. I believe that somebody mentioned Samba and that could be a problem. There have also been problems on the remote Apple directories.
Some of these have been mentioned in other posts but a lot of them don't follow the logical rules that you think they are following. Please remember Murphy's Correlary: Murphy was an optimist when he wrote his eponymous law.
Use this. It worked for me - codesign --force --deep --sign - /Applications/SpringToolSuite4.app
It will try to force sign the app and give you permission to run it.
Thanks @SridharRaj this fix worked for me. I had been digging for a fix for about 3 hours. Watched YouTube videos, ran utilities, changed permissions, enabled apps from anywhere et al but nothing worked. I am so very grateful. Thanks again.
Thanks @SridharRaj this worked for me too... You saved my time :-)
