XtraFinder

An update comes out every time I think this app is defunct. I had problems with it in Ventura but now I'm running the Sonoma beta and it seems to be working, so far.

Is disabling SIP still required?

Will XtraFinder ever be updated to work with macOS Ventura 13.x? In the List view, it is painful that the Finder cannot remember a fixed width for the Name. To my knowledge, no other software provides the capability of setting a fixed width for the Name in the List view. I am not interested in the Column view at all. It is already May 16, 2023.

The Monterey version of XtraFinder will only work if SIP is disabled - and disabling the security system is something I will not do. Hopefully, the developer can get XtraFinder to work with SIP enabled.

Monterey version is on developer's website...click to download.

I loaded the newest Monterey version on my MacBook Pro M1 and it doesn't seem to respond. I've deleted app and reloaded (including disabling SIP) but no luck. Does it still need XtraFinder Loader to work?

This is quite a (pleasant) surprise. I'd given up on it.

I've been running XtraFinder almost since day one, and although I don't get all that much use out of it, I will sorely miss it when, as it appears it will, it goes by the boards in Monterey.

Thanks for the valuable app. Blessings and good luck in all your endeavors!

Can you re-enable SIP once XtraFinder is installed?

I've been using this app for years. It's an interesting app in that the author never responds to the mail. But just when you think he's stopped supporting it, he comes out with updates.

Cannot get this to work on Big Sur 11.3.1. Bought the license and followed the instructions: 1. Disabled SIP 2. Terminal: sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.security.libraryvalidation.plist DisableLibraryValidation -bool true 3. Copy XtraFinderInjector.osax to directory /Library/ScriptingAdditions. 4. Copy XtraFinder.app to directory /Applications. .. and nothing. Clicking the app in applications does not start the program. No error message or anything. Any suggestions?

J'aime Xtrafinder et je continue à l'utiliser avec Big Sur, mais malheureusement, le Dual Panel ne fonctionne pas, xtrafinder se bloque, quelqu'un a-t-il la solution ?

I would like to restart to collaborate with Trần Kỳ Nam in advising him about some little and rare bugs and also to make XtraFinder even easier to use 'as finder'. I recommend anyone to become addicted to it, the best way to can't even imagine to switch on a losedoz 10!

Works great in Big Sur, unlike TotalFinder.

I'm pleasantly surprised this app is still being maintained. Unfortunately, it does not work in the current beta of Big Sur.

Having difficulty installing Xtrafinder on Catalina 15.7 I can't copy Xtrafinder OSAX file into ScriptingAdditon. I don't have permission to write to the file. Only System can write to the file.

After installing xtrafinder files aren't shown in some folders hence it is completely defeating it's own purpose. Need to Force Quit Finder and restart Finder to see the files. Do some testing before releasing please. It was crappy 5 years ago and sadly not much has changed.

Grmpf after updating to 10.15.4 xtrafinder only works with disabled SIP :-(

High Sierra. Disabled SIP, copied XtraFinderInjector.osax to /System/Library/ScriptingAdditions. Copied XtraFinder.app to directory /Applications, re-enabled SIP. Run XtraFinder, get this: could not find file /system/library/scriptingadditions/xtrafinderinjector.osax Check directory, it is there. Disable SIP just in case, same error message. Uninstaller works as intended.
