## Patcher Warnings
|
||||
|
||||
Since this patcher tricks macOS into thinking you're running a newer Mac, certain functionality may be broken:
|
||||
|
||||
* Boot Camp Assistant.app
|
||||
* We recommend running the assistant on a natively supported OS
|
||||
* Legacy Windows Booting
|
||||
* Currently OpenCore cannot boot MBR-based installs, so Ivy Bridge and older Machines may not be able to see Windows in OpenCore's Boot Picker
