The forum

I can launch apps just fine within the PlayOnMac app. When I "Create a shortcut" and then open the .app it creates, I can see the dock quickly open an app and close it instantly. I can never launch any apps from created shortcuts. What am I doing wrong?

I'm having the exact same issue. Running POM 4.4.3, OS 10.15.7, MacBookPro mid-2014. I suspect the shortcuts are not being created correctly.

ETA: - log output:
