I installed a game application (Minecraft) on a user profile but it only works for that one user. How, if possible, can I move the application access to another user on the same iMac or even all users. I don't want to have to uninstall it from one user and reinstall it to another user if possible. Minecraft does show on the Launcher of all users but when I try to open it access is not available except for the user profile that I had originally installed it under that account. This is a simple permissions fix? It's a 2011 iMac with the latest macOS update. Thanks.
 
I never could figure this out so what I did was uninstall Minecraft on that adult user and installed it on the child user. It did make me buy it again to download again it though.
