Unable to install Bitcoin Core on my MacOS High Sierra

2

I'm trying to install Bitcoin Core (downloaded from bitcoin.org/en/download) on my MacOS High Sierra. But, I'm repeatedly getting the error The document "Bitcoin-Core" could not be opened. Finder cannot open files in the "volume" format.

The document "Bitcoin-Core" could not be opened. Finder cannot open files in the "volume" format.

Tried to google about it. But, didn't get any information about this error. Need some help to install this on my machine.

Currently using MacOS High Sierra(10.13.6).

Dammit, what was happening I don't know as a bit new to this MacOS thing. But, rather than double clicking on that stupid drive icon of "Bitcoin-Core" in desktop... I clicked on the drive icon from left-hand side pan from "Devices" section on Finder window & it opened without any error. It's working fine now. Problem fixes guys. What a waste of time. -.-

It wasn't your fault, it's a bug caused by an invalid .DS_Store metadata file: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/14414
