4. When the installer finishes, to run SAM:

If you are having problems after installing SAM with text being unreadable, try changing the text size to normal in the operating system's accessibility settings.

Mac Installation Instructions

• Double-click the package (.pkg file) to run the installation program.

For some older versions of MacOS (OS X), a security feature called Gatekeeper may prevent you from starting SAM. For more on bypassing Gatekeeper, see this CNET article.

If SAM does not display correctly in macOS Dark Mode, close SAM, switch macOS to Light Mode, and then restart SAM.

Windows Installation Instructions

• Double click the .exe installation file and follow the instructions in the installation wizard. By default SAM will install in the c:/SAM/2022.11.21 folder.
