Releases
v0.13.3.AB
Adds PreferUGA
Feature
Sets RefindPlus to always use UGA for its graphics output when available
The default is to use GOP and to fall back on UGA when GOP is not available
The feature can be enabled using a new prefer_uga
configuration token
Adds FollowSymlinks
Feature
Allows following symbolic links to loaders
These are otherwise ignored to avoid misc issues but may be useful to run some Linux setups
The feature can be enabled using a new follow_symlinks
configuration token
Adds FocusNvramFix
Feature
Focuses the ProtectNVRAM
feature (if set) on explicit UEFI Windows boots
The feature can be enabled using a new focus_nvram_fix
configuration token
Replaces the EnableMacosFilter
feature which has been removed
Fixes Unwanted APFS Data Volume Entries
APFS data volumes could sometimes appear as boot options due to inadequate filtering
Fixes SubScreen Boots
Boots from subscreens, such as after pressing F2
, were handled as generic UEFI files
This resulted in some processes being skipped or unwanted processes being applied
RefindPlus now tries to make such boots specific as follows:
Opencore
, Clover
, Linux
, MacOS
, Windows
and Misc Others
Fixes Apple Hardware Test Option
While Apple stopped providing this feature after June 2013, some users may have restored this
In such cases however, RefindPlus did not provide the option on APFS volumes when SyncAPFS
is active
Now reinstated subject to not having multiple MacOS instances in any single APFS container
Fixes Misc Items
Always block UEFI Windows NVRAM items (Disregard Volatility)
Address misidentification of certain volume types as HFS+ volumes
Address misplaced Out
and Return
log tags
Eliminate excessive pointer event logging
Eliminate python script code smells
Improves System Reset Call
Fix
Was previously always active when on system reboot calls
This meant such calls always required confirmation
Such confirmations are no longer required if keypresses had taken place before the call
Hence all legitimate calls now proceed without issue and buffered keystroke calls are also captured
Improves FS Type Handling
Prevents Windows Support Volumes from being offered as boot options
Updates Volume FS_TYPE
setting to match assumed types
Differentiates between HFS+ types
Improves Time Bound Primed Buffer Mitigation
Reduces intervention threshold based on detection of confirmed user key presses
Amends the ShouldScan
Function to Exclude HFS+ Recovery HD
Volumes
This recovery functionality was meant to be handled by the Mac Recovery Tool
Amends the WarnIfLegacyProblems
Function Run Position
Now runs after the SetupScreen
function to ensure screen display on issues
Amends EFI Scan to Exclude BOOTCAMP
BootCamp creates HybridMBR disks and trigger redundant attempts to find EFI loaders
Ports Downstream Directory Scan Iteration Fix
You can’t perform that action at this time.
