TinkerTool System 9 is a collection of system utility features helping you in performing advanced administration tasks on Apple Macintosh computers. The application makes use of a self-adapting user interface which automatically adjusts to the computer model and to the version of macOS you are running.

All options available in the current situation are accessible via “panes”, very similar to the System Settings application. The features are controlled via a single window which allows you to use the application as a general toolbox and First Aid assistant.

This includes

• built-in maintenance features of macOS, usually not visible on the graphical user interface,
• extended file operations, not available in the macOS Finder,
• the possibility to access advanced system settings which are not visible in System Settings,
• graphical user interfaces for “pro” features for which Apple doesn’t provide any graphical interface in modern versions of macOS any longer,
• genuine and unique features of TinkerTool System, designed to resolve typical real-world problems of administrators and to fix the effects of certain defects (“bugs”) in the operating system,
• features to protect your privacy,
• an emergency tool to troubleshoot and repair macOS in cases where the normal user interface is no longer starting correctly or the user account of the system administrator has been damaged,
• functions to collect advanced information about the hardware, operating system, and applications.

What's New:

Release 9.1 (Build 241014)

• As Apple has now released the official manuals and support documentation for macOS Sequoia, all links in the quick-help feature could be updated and adjusted accordingly.
• The Uninstallation Assistant now also deletes the user’s corresponding list of recent documents when removing an application.
• Added a workaround for an internal issue of macOS Sequoia which could prevent the Logs feature from opening archived copies of the macOS log database.
• The feature to modify the user’s POSIX permission filter is now supported again when the application detects an operating system version which is capable of providing this feature reliably.
• The term “Apple Account” has been updated in the reference manuals.
• Fixed a problem where the feature to delete a selected Time Machine snapshot from APFS media confirmed a successful removal when actually no operation was performed.
