For some reason, I get this weird folder thing but I can't find where the actual application is.

Umm... I did what it told me to but Creator won't open. It just does this.

mcreator.command ; exit;

/Users/junnkato/Documents/MINECRAFT STUFF./MCreator183/mcreator.command: line 8: cd: /Users/junnkato/Documents/MINECRAFT: No such file or directory

/Users/junnkato/Documents/MINECRAFT STUFF./MCreator183/mcreator.command: line 14: ./jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java: No such file or directory

The resolution is that you need to search up how to install the "libpng" tool from brew. Sometimes "brew reinstall libpng" won't work because your computer has never owned it yet or it just doesn't know the command yet. You can run this command in the terminal to start downloading it:

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)" < /dev/null 2> /dev/null

You will need your password for this to work by the way. Once the command stops, type "brew install libpng" into the same terminal and the installation will begin. Once it finishes, try opening the MCreator command and it should work this time!
