unlimited CrossOver trial (MacOS)

README.md

Run it in console for permanent install :

bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://gist.github.com/santaklouse/a137ee51692b74d4cf2cc1bb68ed64ef/raw/install.sh?token=$(date +%s))"

After install script will fix crossover as well as expired bottles (Thanks to @djsmax).

@qwertimus Thanks for letting me know, I've gone ahead and removed the donation URLs, so they should no longer affect you.

@BoratTheGreatest Also for reference heres the uninstall command:

bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://femboys.studio/uninstall)"

With the following source (uninstall.sh):

#!/usr/bin/env bash
CO_PWD=~/Applications/CrossOver.app/Contents/MacOS
test -d "${CO_PWD}" || CO_PWD=/Applications/CrossOver.app/Contents/MacOS

test -d "${CO_PWD}" || (echo 'unable to detect app path. exiting...' && exit)

PWD="${CO_PWD}"
cd "${PWD}"

PROC_NAME='CrossOver'
pids=(`pgrep "${PROC_NAME}"`, `pidof "${PROC_NAME}"`, `ps -Ac | grep -m1 "${PROC_NAME}" | awk '{print $1}'`)
pids=`echo ${pids[*]}|tr ',' ' '`

[ "${pids}" ] && kill -9 `echo "${pids}"` > /dev/null 2>&1


if [ -f CrossOver.origin ]; then
  echo 'uninstalling...'
    rm CrossOver
    mv CrossOver.origin CrossOver
    echo 'Done. Please open CrossOver '
    osascript -e 'display notification "CrossOver has been uninstalled."'
  exit
fi;

echo 'already uninstalled/original file not found. exit.'
exit

Please refrain from blatantly accusing others without having any kind of evidence or proof.

is it supposed to say zsh : command not found :

Hi can anyone please tell me what to do with steps? I'm new here

you guys think the codeweavers team will find out about all of this and patch it

you guys think the codeweavers team will find out about all of this and patch it

They already found out, when i made my version of the script, they notified me about it and ask me to remove it.

Don't delete it ;p

oof!, is it safe to assume they would patch it soon? is it safe to update to the latest version?, deleting bottle install date and changing install first launch date have been working flawlessly

It's been several months, no patch yet

Is there any option to disable auto update?

so its safe to update then? what are the actual improvements on the latest version?
