Posting an update, a repackaged 7.6.21 installer for OS X has been posted on the Folding@home download page. It has a fixed FAHControl that should work on all OS versions. In addition this installer has been signed and notarized with Apple. There should be no need to override Gatekeeper when instal...

Awesome! It’s working now.

Thank you all for getting this fixed!

Side question: what is the easiest way to “bounce” FAH without rebooting the computer? Mainly because pause/fold doesn’t actually restart the engine. I don’t need it now but maybe in the future...

Any updates here? I am bummed about not being able to spin up my GPU. It's the whole reason I bought this computer.

That could be the problem, a typo getting that entry into the GPUs.txt file. Possibly a "7" misread as a "i". I will bring that to the attention of the file maintainers. If this ends up being the culprit, what would I need to do? Will FAH pick up the new file automatically, or w...

The GeForce 1650 is supported PROVIDED you download the driver package from nVidia . Reinstalling whatever version (or greater) Windows decided to install will be fine. The problem you're having is that Windows UNINSTALLS the nVidia version of OpenCL if it's present. FAH requires that version and i...

Yeah, when I "force" uninstall the drivers by deleting the files, and going back to letting Windows set up its own driver, it gets me 446.14 - but still doesn't work. No matter what I keep getting WARNING:FS01:Disabling beta GPU slot 01: gpu:1:0 TU117 [GeForce GTX 1650] 3091. Beta GPUs can...

When I "uninstall" the video card and select "uninstall driver" so it defaults back to the windows driver, it uses version driver 457.30. I am now going try to force a real uninstall by deleting files and registry keys. Stay tuned... I checked, and my GPUs.txt is there and curren...

Hello, I have a brand new computer with Windows 10, and it won't fold on my Nvidia GeForce 1650 GPU, it is disabled. I have tried the current Nvidia driver, as well as every version back as far as it will let me (For example driver 441.28 won't install, it is not compatible with the current patch ve...

Again, I'm not here to debate Apple's process. I have a different experience with that process than you have apparently, but maybe it has to do with bedside manner? As far as 7.5.1 - it could have been signed previously before something expired (I am not sure if that is the case - I have never tried...

Are there any updates on this front? I am not going to debate with folks about getting code signed by apple, that's for a different time and place.

People who can not or will not override GateKeeper are stuck at 7.5.1.

Yes, completely turning off Gatekeeper is a bad thing. That should never be an instruction. But even making an exception for turning off a certain application is also an unnecessary risk. It is 2020, signing and notorizing code is not a new thing and is more and more becoming the norm. I literally r...

Please support MacOS X Catalina, and it's Gatekeeper security model, so that Mac users can use FaH. Not all users can make exceptions to OS security policies on their machines. Whether due to personal preference, corporate restrictions, or general adherence to best practices - Mac users should not b...

It looks like it may be a known bug and is impacting Windows as well (probably because it has been so long since FaH issued an update)

Apple increased the requirements on developers for signing of software not distributed through the App Store starting in Mojave. Applications such as this now need to be submitted to Apple to be notarized and a ticket added that will allow Gatekeeper to okay the installation. This adds no additiona...
