<p>AppleGeek: Restore Tools is deprecated on MacOS Mojave</p> <hr /> <div>{{Internal software}}<br /> '''RestoreTools.pkg''' is a package seeded to some Apple employees. It contains the following Mac applications: [[PurpleRestore]], [[PurpleSNIFF]], [[PurpleFAT]], [[DCSD]], [[PurpleBuildSanitizer]], a crash dumper, which automatically launches when an iDevice is connected, and an additional panel for Xcode Organizer. The command line version of [[PurpleRestore]] is installed as well to /usr/local/bin as well as a handfull of other command line utilities. These applications aren't installed in /Applications like normal. They are instead installed to /AppleInternal/Applications.<br /> <br /> <br /> When attempting to install restoreTools.pkg on MacOS Mojave(10.14.4) it gives the user an error message and refers them to HomeDiagnostics. It appears that Restore Tools is being deprecated for [[Home Diagnostics]].<br /> {{stub|software}}</div>
