Overview
With EtreCheck Pro for Mac you can find serious problems on your macOS or remove annoying adware! Get help on Apple Support Communities, and see just what your Mac is doing on the inside.
- It does not install files in hidden directories,
- It reports protecting your personal information when posted online,
- It makes no changes without your consent.
- It will not slow down your machine,
- It will not cause other apps to crash,
- It uses little memory while running and no memory when not running.
The program is available in two different flavors - Etre Check, available from Apple’s Mac App Store and EtreCheckPro, available from Etresoft directly. These two products are very similar. Both are free. Both have a Power User in-app purchase available. However, EtreCheck from Apple’s Mac App Store is restricted by Apple’s Mac App Store policies. It does not have these restrictions but also does not benefits from Apple’s ecosystem.
I cannot get Full Drive Access to work?
Unfortunately, Full Drive Access is a system restriction. All that the app can do is point you to the system features to enable it. In the Mac App Store version of the program, you must give the tool read access to the root directory on your hard drive. If you have macOS 10.14 “Mojave”, using either the app from the Mac App Store or EtreCheckPro, Full Drive Access requires going to System Preferences > Privacy > Full Disk Access and adding app to the list. This means that is you are running app from the Mac App Store on Mojave, there are two steps required.
