Can't load extension - "Error loading extension (...) (no such file)" #3933

Hey, I'm trying to add the sqlite-vec extension to DB Browser via Settings -> Extensions, but it throws an error: Is sqlite-vec not supported or do you know why this might be happening? The file path is definitely correct and I tried removing the file extension, adding this doubled file extension and so on but I keep getting this error. I also made sure that the file is executable (since macOS blocks execution by default, but I allowed it through the system settings) Thanks! |

And what is the full path of the file (including extension) of the file you're trying to add? |

I kind of wonder if it's a macOS Security thing getting in the way. Is the vec0.dylib file signed? If it's not, is there anything in the macOS Settings "Security" area about it after you try to load it? |

The file is not signed, no (at least I don't think so) and macOS did block it at first, but I allowed it in the security settings so it should have the rights. |
