Before using it you will need to download and install the utility from here Or this one for some more customisation – īelow you will find two AppleScripts, one for automating the process of repairing file permissions and the other one is for empting your trash.įirst the script which does the permission repair.

XtraFinder’s article on how to partially disable SIP – Here are just few links if you are interested: I am not going in to details on how to do it, there are many articles on internet about that.

Simply said – if you want the full control over the OS you will have to disable SIP. For example the bless command will not work, you can no longer “empty trash” while a file is still engaged in a process, if disable SIP you can no longer do repair permissions on your system files as this feature has been removed from Disk Utility. So this brings some inconvenience when you try to automate certain aspects of your daily routine. This is all fine probably for most users, but limits the possibilities of tweaking the system as well as flexibility of manipulating certain aspects of the OS’s behaviour.

What it basically does is to limit access to sensitive parts of the OS, prevent code injection, etc. 🙂Īs some of you already know Apple introduced a new security feature to their latest OS X called System Integrity Protection (SIP). Time is tight as usual, so let’s not waste it and get on with the already delayed El Capitan post. So this is the script I have made to solve the problem, you can tweak it the way you want and need /may be if you use it or post it somewhere mentioning me would be nice :-)/: The task was to make a script checking the state of the screens and automatically reboot if there is a problem. After a reboot though everything comes back to normal. In my case the problem was not having all the displays on after initial boot, the main Philips display comes on, but both Apple Thunderbolt displays did not.

I do not know about your experience with Macs and multiple displays, but according to mine it can get messy, especially if you have more then two displays or /god forbid! -)/ Apple plus other display manufacturers. Some time ago I had to create a script to execute on startup, do its job and reboot the computer if needed, but how do you prevent going in to rebooting loop? Luckily after a bit of wondering around I managed to find a solution – the system_profiler command! It gives the opportunity to track the hardware state and if there is any change it can be used to trigger a script execution. If finderMess2 = “You’re up-to-date!” then Set finderMess2 to the value of static text 1 of window 1 of application process “Finder” of application “System Events” If finderMess1 = “XtraFinder Beta has expired!” thenĬlick button “OK” of window 1 of application process “Finder” of application “System Events” Set finderMess1 to the value of static text 1 of window 1 of application process “Finder” of application “System Events” If exists ( window 1 of process “Finder”) then If XfinderMess = “System Integrity Protection is enabled.” thenĬlick button “OK” of window 1 of application process “XtraFinder” of application “System Events” Set XfinderMess to the value of static text 1 of window 1 of application process “XtraFinder” of application “System Events” If exists ( window 1 of process “XtraFinder”) then Tell application “XtraFinder” to activate

The script app has to be in your log in items and will/should work fine even after you upgrade to the latest version of XtraFinder, currently 0.25.9 /which by the way fixes the nag messages, until the time for the next update probably, which if not on time will probably start the receiving of the expire message again. The tutorial is for XtraFinder version 0.25 where mine was 0.25.8 and though the assembler instructions and the function looked the same I think that matters.Īs I am not an assembler guru I went back to the good old applescript to make a few clicks on behalf of a human 🙂 Please check the script below and change it if you need to. Well unfortunately I found only one good and interesting blog post on the subject involving Hopper Disassembler, but that did not worked for me, whatever I tried I did not manage to produce an executable file which will actually work.

As what was suggested in the official support page did not work I went to see what is available online, Google is your friend, right!? 🙂 I was recently asked to help with the annoying XtraFinder’s message “ XtraFinder Beta has expired!” and make it disappear without user input.
