TinkerTool
TinkerTool is an application that
gives you access to additional preference settings Apple has
built into macOS. This allows to activate hidden features in
the operating system and in some of the applications
delivered with the system.
The tool makes sure that preference changes can only affect
the current user. You don't need administrative privileges
to use the tool. With this design, it is no problem to use
TinkerTool in professional networks where users have
restricted permissions. The program will never change any
component of the operating system, so the integrity of your
system is not put at risk, and there will be no negative
effect on system updates. Compliance with these security
rules is additionally guaranteed by the application sandbox
of macOS.
All preference settings changed by TinkerTool can be reset
to Apple's defaults, or to the state that existed before
using the tool. No dangerous background processes are used
for TinkerTool's operation.
TinkerTool is electronically distributed software. You can
download the product free of charge.
