TinkerTool System is a collection of system utility features helping you in performing advanced administration tasks on Apple Macintosh computers. The application makes use of a self-adapting user interface which automatically adjusts to the computer model and to the version of macOS you are running. All options available in the current situation are accessible via “panes”, very similar to the techniques you already know from the System Preferences application. The features are controlled via a single window which allows you to use the application as a general toolbox and First Aid assistant.
This includes:
built-in maintenance features of macOS, usually not visible on the graphical user interface,
extended file operations, not available in the macOS Finder,
the possibility to access advanced system settings which are not visible in System Preferences,
genuine and unique features of TinkerTool System, designed to resolve typical real-world problems of administrators and to fix the effects of certain defects (“bugs”) in the operating system,
an emergency tool to troubleshoot and repair macOS in cases where the graphical user interface is no longer starting correctly or the user account of the system administrator has been damaged,
functions to collect advanced information about the hardware, operating system, and applications.
Together with its sister program TinkerTool which is available at no charge, TinkerTool System is a perfect substitute for the following types of system utilities:
Finder enhancers,
Cache and font cache cleaners,
Scripts to create bootable system installer and recovery disks,
Tools to access hidden preference settings,
Applications to make objects invisible in the Finder,

When testing fans, the fan speeds are now always indicated with rounded numbers, even when using Mac models where Apple is measuring rotational speeds with decimal places.
Hundreds of other small changes and adjustments for macOS 11.
The following features have been removed because they are no longer part of macOS Big Sur, no longer make sense, or have been superseded by new macOS features: repeating system optimization, deactivation of caches while the system is running, rebuilding the driver cache, rebuilding the XPC cache, resizing DMG image files, showing the list of blocked kernel drivers, automatically suggesting components when removing software, disabling automounting of disks outside a login session, control of the option to support captive networks, additional display of HiDPI resolutions, disabling the option-ROM security feature for the Startup Manager, disabling 32-bit software, screen saver control for the login screen.

Added a new workaround and documentation for macOS defects that can cause Time Machine maintenance features to fail if the backup is network-based.

What’s New:
Version 6.84 (Build 200117)
The user interface to present the hierarchy of APFS objects was enhanced.
The privacy protection warning that is shown when the user has not yet given consent for Full Disk Access by the application is now highlighted more prominently.
Error messages and error handling have been optimized to better differentiate between the reasons of access failures caused by System Integrity Protection, privacy approval, user permissions, or other issues.
This version adds a workaround for an ambiguity that could cause an incorrect display of production dates for Macintosh model series that have up-to-date operating system support for more than 10 years.
This version fixes a problem where macOS may have refused to clone an APFS volume group if it was part of a container with multiple volume groups.
Corrected a problem where resetting privacy settings did not work for all categories when using specific versions of macOS Catalina.
The application now adds specific user guidance when resetting a privacy category that has influence onto the application itself.
