A python program for building and booting [OpenCore](https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg) on legacy Macs, see [Supported SMBIOS](https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/MODELS.html) on whether your model is supported. Designed around Big Sur support, however can be used on older OSes.
| Support Entry | Supported OSes | Description | Comment |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| HostOS | macOS 10.9 - macOS 11 | Refers to OSes where running OpenCore-Patcher.app are supported | Supports 10.7+ if [Python 3.6 or higher](https://www.python.org/downloads/) is manually installed, simply run the `OpenCore-Patcher.command` located in the repo |
| TargetOS | macOS 11 | Refers to OSes that can be patched to run with OpenCore | May support 10.4 and newer (in a potentially broken state). No support provided. |
A python program for building and booting [OpenCore](https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg) on both legacy and modern Macs, see our in-depth [Guide](https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/) for more information.
Supported features:
* System Integrity Protection, FileVault 2, .im4m Secure Boot and Vaulting
* WPA Wifi and Personal Hotspot support
* Native OTA OS DELTA updates on all Macs
* Recovery OS, Safe Mode and Single-user Mode booting
* Zero firmware patching required (ie. APFS ROM patching)
* GPU Switching on MacBook Pro models (2012 and newer)
Note: Only clean-installs and upgrades are supported, installs already patched with other patchers, such as [Patched Sur](https://github.com/BenSova/Patched-Sur) or [bigmac](https://github.com/StarPlayrX/bigmac), cannot be used due to broken file integrity with APFS snapshots and SIP.
Note: Only clean-installs and upgrades are supported, macOS Big Sur installs already patched with other patchers, such as [Patched Sur](https://github.com/BenSova/Patched-Sur) or [bigmac](https://github.com/StarPlayrX/bigmac), cannot be used due to broken file integrity with APFS snapshots and SIP.
* You can however reinstall macOS with this patcher and retain your original data
Note 2: Currently OpenCore Legacy Patcher officially supports patching to run macOS 11, Big Sur installs. For older OSes, OpenCore may function however support is currently not provided from Dortania.
For Mojave and Catalina support, we recommend the use of [dosdude1's patchers](http://dosdude1.com)
## How to use
See the online guide on how:
* [OpenCore Legacy Patcher Guide](https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/)
## 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, running via the patcher may result in unforeseen issues
* 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](https://github.com/acidanthera/bugtracker/issues/912)
* [Solution is to convert install to UEFI](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/configmgr/osd/deploy-use/task-sequence-steps-to-manage-bios-to-uefi-conversion), see MacRumors thread for more examples: [Installing Windows 10](https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/opencore-on-the-mac-pro.2207814/)
* You can still boot BootCamp outside of OpenCore just like before however!
* Boot Buddy support
* Due to how OpenCore overwrites NVRAM, the usage of Boot Buddy and such tools are **highly** in-advised
* For Mojave and Catalina support, we recommend the use of [dosdude1's patchers](http://dosdude1.com)
