OpenCore, a sophisticated boot loader

OpenCore is a sophisticated boot loader used to inject and patch data in memory, instead of on disk. This means that we’re able to achieve a near-native experience on many unsupported Macs.

• We recommend viewing the OpenCore Patcher Terminology Page if you have questions.
• For troubleshooting, join the OpenCore Patcher Paradise Discord Server (opens new window) and see our Troubleshooting Page.

# How do I get started?

1. The first step of ensuring whether your model is supported is by checking the Supported Models page.

2. Download and build macOS Installer

3. Run the OpenCore-Patcher.app

4. Reboot and boot OpenCore
