If your drive really has got itself into a mess you’ll soon learn that the Apple disk utility won’t always help, at the worst your drive might not even boot and this where a Stellar Softwares offering shines above that whats built in with the shape of being able to create a Rescue Disk. What isn’t made clear on their website is how Stellar differs from Disk utility but if you head to the bottom of the review they have sent me a list of issues it will fix. Granted Disk Utility is more basic but the premise is that after running Volume Repair the permissions should be at least fixed?Īnd viola, sure enough those permissions are now sorted. Now let’s run the Apple Disk Utility again to see if there is a change. Again there’s no log file or any sign to tell you what’s gone on along with no information on how to get out of trouble if you need to roll back. he who dares…Īnd when it’s done it’s stuff this is what you get. It hits me at this point I’m testing disk software on a live work machine, surely that’s not a good thing? Ah well. ![]() ![]() ![]() So here’s a capture of the state of the permissions on my daily workhorse mac before running Mac Volume repair. Again having a dated interface without any logging going on does leave you wondering if the user interface is dated, is what it can actually do going to belong in the past. It’s a might bit unsettling to not at least view what could be wrong before doing a repair for when you have to jump in and do a touch of manual work. Unlike Disk Utility there is no verify first before embarking on a repair option, instead it jumps right in with a repair option available.
