How to update Opencore bootloader - Fast and Easy - Release or Pre Release version

 

 

Thanks 👌 , definitely useful for many, we hope they remember to set OCConfigurator to the right release and update it 😆 otherwise it messes up the plist, surely fast , pity   don't learn how to edit the plist and understand the differences, being that it does the whole program,but there is time for that😁

Edit : Checked with ocvalidate , no issues found 🤙

thank you!!

[tsader]

I am on a X99 system...

Since opencore 0.6.6 every time I update and reset nvram the version stays the same at 0.6.6. I am at 0.7.0 now and I am running Big Sur 11.4

I ran the myvar=test and it works fine and always  get myvar test returned. In Hackintool the kext versions are all wrong too even though all kexts inside my EFI are the newest versions.

Any idea why this could be?

 

Thx

Hello, I read on non-vanilla-way Guide said that:

 

And we know config.plist always add/remove some stuff in new version OC, OC Configurators can add these stuff auto properly or must do manualy?

u can use last configurator version with correct oc version or use OCAuxiliaryTools

Mine is already working though..is it required to update the opencore bootloader?

[Machackvanilla]

Hey guys, 

Someone can help me with the OC update.

I have followed the tutorial step, however, my EFI folder have 02 config file, one have oldconfig.plist as file name.

Is it okay to keep both?

[Odize]

After replaced everything but when I open the configuration list on oc auxiliary tools doesn’t show the red market to be able to validate, it’s shows that is already checked good.
How can I get through this ?
