Unable to update HandBrake

[bocaboy]

Description of problem or question:
]When I click on "Check For Updates" I get an error that I'm running from a read-only volume or disc image. I uninstalled the application, redownloaded it from your site and then reinstalled it, but I still had the same error message. HandBrake is installed correctly in the Applications folder.



Steps to reproduce the problem (If Applicable):
Click on HandBrake/Check For Updates...



HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):
1.1.0



Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):

Where the handbrake file is placed influences what MacOS will allow you to do with it.

Could be a permissions issue with the Applications folder. Make sure your user has write permissions.
