Ah thanks for reporting, this is related to a Xcode bug that I already worked around in the non-setapp version but missed there. I'll upload a fixed version.

Awesome. I have to say that I rely on BTT so much that this bug is seriously bugging me :slight_smile: on this machine.

It's an ancient iMac that still works just fine hardware-wise. Great job, Apple! The only problem is that it can't be upgraded past Big Sur.

Have you checked the opencore legacy patcher? Has worked great on some of my older machines :slight_smile:

Cool stuff! Thanks for the tip. I might give it a shot.

Not out of the woods yet. I got v4.711 from Setapp this morning, and it still crashes on launch. See attached:

I'm glad the fix is ready. Are Setapp updates once-a-week event?
