[Tex/LaTex] How to install TexStudio properly on Mac OS

installingmacostexstudio

I downloaded the texstudio-3.0.1-osx.dmg file from https://www.texstudio.org.

Now, when I double click on the dmg file, its supposed to install TexStudio, am I right?

But instead, it just creates this sort of temporary, mountable drive thing on the desktop:

But I don't think this is proper installation of TexStudio, as I can't find TexStudio in launchpad. Also, even though I can open TexStudio by double clicking on this mountable icon, if I right-click on this icon and click on "eject", TexStudio goes away:

So, how do I properly install TexStudio such that it persists in the hard disk and also shows up in launchpad as an installed program?

P.S.: I have installed MikTex before trying to installing TexStudio, in case it matters.

Best Answer

I got the answer, and I'm posting it here in case anyone else faces the same issue in future.

Open Finder and click on Applications:

Then open the TexStudio mountable drive, and drag the TexStudio icon in it into the Applications opened in the above step.

That's it. TexStudio is now installed, and you can eject the mountable drive thing and also delete the dmg file if you wish.
