![]() ![]() Now, it’s not FUSE’s (or VeraCrypt/Cryptomator/pCloud’s) fault. Without this workaround, FUSE will simply not work, leaving apps that depend on it useless. Because new Macs have changed how system-level extensions work, FUSE doesn’t work out of the box.įUSE 4.x.x has been updated for new Apple Silicon Macs but there is a workaround involved to actually make it work. ![]() My recommended zero-knowledge encrypted cloud provider pCloud also works thanks to FUSE. Two encryption app I use daily – VeraCrypt and Cryptomator – rely on FUSE to work. Now, FUSE is not really an ‘app’ on its own but rather an extension. That however, is not true while running VeraCrypt on new M1 Macs. ![]() Although it wasn’t immediately updated for the latest macOS version, VeraCrypt works with Big Sur using old OS X FUSE version. I use VeraCrypt to encrypt all my external storage and it relies on OS X FUSE to work. The popular virtualisation app simply can’t run on M1 Macs – natively or otherwise – due to changes introduced in the way new Macs work.Īnother app – and this one is crucial for me – is VeraCrypt. One example that comes to mind is Parallels Desktop that allows you to run operating systems like Windows virtually on a Mac. Apps that are not updated to run natively on Arm architecture run smoothly using Rosetta 2 and it’s hard to tell if you are using a native app or not.īut then there are apps that are crucial for a particular (and relatively small) user-base that are neither updated to run natively on new M1 Macs nor can be run with Rosetta 2. In few weeks of new Macs with Apple Silicon M1 processor, it’s clear that Apple has done a great job to make the transition from Intel chips smooth. ![]()
