We are warned that a future release of macOS will not run old 32-bit software. Should we worry? How to find out the scale of your problem.
32-bit
Mojave’s new feature to show ‘Legacy Software’ is far from complete, and thoroughly misleading.
Stories about 32-bit support, APFS and Fusion Drives, widespread app problems, failed updates, Time machine, and privacy protection.
A notarized version, which should benefit all users, and pass Mojave’s Gatekeeper checks in full.
Updates mainly to improve their appearance in Dark Mode, although most Consolation users should find worthwhile improvements too.
Fire up your eGPUs, engage Dark Mode, and open Xcode: our Macs are once again going to be at the centre of invention and reinvention.
Choose whether you want the Folder textbox cleared when you scan, and improvements to default location to save reports.
New version 1.2 also scans Mach-O files like command tools and dylibs, to check if they are still 32-bit. The only complete check available.
Now runs in the background – no more spinning beachballs! Also handles errors in folder paths better, and shows a ‘busy spinner’ when scanning.
First full release: the only tool to check thoroughly for 32-bit apps and code bundles in whichever folders you want.
