Ned Deily <n...@python.org> added the comment: Thanks for your suggestions. I agree that the Root Certificates and OpenSSL situation on macOS is still less than desirable. For 3.7.0b2, I have tried to make things more obvious in two ways. One, the installer package will now attempt to open a Finder window for the /Application/Python 3.7 folder that contains the "Install Certificates.command". Two, rather than just a generic "installation complete" message at the end of the install, there is now a tailored message that urges the user to click on the "Install Certificates.command" icon. I considered trying to run the command automatically from the installer but that gets a bit messy: 1. it requires a network connection; 2. the installer would need to ensure the installation takes place with the right user and group permission and not just as root; 3. the user might not want to use certifi; and 4. the solution needs to work across all macOS versions supported by the installer variant. Also, it appears the installer doesn't allo w command files to be executed by clicking on a link in the installer window, a prudent security measure. While not perfect, I think what's now in 3.7.0b2 should be an improvement, at least it will be much harder to overlook without being too obnoxious about it.
