![]() The only difference is intent, malware does it to accomplish undesirable behavior TF does it to accomplish desired behavior. This is no different than what a Trojan or malware program does, Trojans and malware insert themselves into running code to change behavior. TF is not independent of Finder, it uses code injection, it LITERALLY seeks out and INSERTS its own code into Finder IN MEMORY at runtime. Those apps are separate apps, they launch and run independent of Finder. Comparing to programs like PathFinder, and saying why can’t TF do that, etc is irrelevant. Most of the misunderstanding is because of a lack of understanding how TF works. One poster even went as far as to say, quote “I simply do not believe you…” in reply to Darwin when he said there is no way to make TF work with SIP enabled. I am amazed, or maybe not, at the level of denial coming from many of you. I love the Cut, Copy, Paste feature (how the hell does Finder still not have keyboard shortcuts to do this)Īs a fellow developer I know how it is to support a long term project and totally get with wanting to sunset something that’s had a good run, but for me I cannot live apparently with out TotalFinder (And TotalTerminal, so I’m hoping a disabled SIP let’s me have that Gem back), so hopefully you have enough people begging you to keep it going that you might re-think sunsetting the app.I love the keyboard shortcut to bring up TotalFinder/visor.I hope that you can find a way around SIP, or even head over to Kickstarter and look for funding for just creating a full blown Mac App that replaces Finder. I’m going to go through the work around of disabling SIP today so I can re-install TotalFinder and I’ll drop some money on another license just cause. I dropped some cash right then in there and have added TotalFinder to every single Mac I buy, and I show it and sell it heavy to every single Mac user I know and come across. A couple years later a class mate was using TotalFinder and my eyes popped out of my head at how awesome TotalFinder was. I remember almost 10 years ago when I made the switch from Windows to OS X, I thought that Finder was Apples biggest weakness in comparison to Window’s file explorer. I’ve been using El Cap for 2 days and thought after reading message about not maintaining the app anymore that I might try to live without it. Will there be a fix some day soon to make Total Finder usable by me, a member of the general public, without needing to understand the arcane comments on this page? Or at least, will you put a warning on your home page so that other unfortunates don’t have the same problem as me? Total Finder should just work, but it doesn’t. ![]() I tried, until I realised that I shouldn’t have to read it all. Reading the posts on the subject is depressing, since I don’t understand most of them. So for the moment it’s been a waste of time and money.Īnd yet the home page made it seem straightforward enough, and carried no particular warning. In other words: I can’t use Total Finder. I tried your workaround, following the instructions to the letter, and it hasn’t made any difference whatsoever. I keep on getting an error message, and when I exit the message I find my Finder has quit. Installed Total Finder (1.6.27) today, bought a license etc.
