Hey folks,
So, I'm reading that DiskWarrior isn't compatible with the M3. i'm looking for diagnostic/repair software that is suitable for my new M3 MacBook Pro. Any suggestions?

I wrote email after email to Alsoft regarding DiskWarrior over the years. They refused to tell me when the app would be updated. But it has been so many years that it is 100% clear the company must have gone broke and cannot afford to pay somebody to update it. It's now defunct software.
TechTool Pro is not a replacement for Disk Warrior, but it can come in handy. Liked by 2112st |

Also-it truly sucks that DiskWarrior is defunct. I have a version that I use on my Intel Macs.

Heck, I still have a version I use for classic Mac OS and PowerPC OS X.

BundleHunt lets you choose your own apps at a discount price. Sometimes they have some good utilities available for recovery and repair.

Current versions of DiskWarrior don't preserve the HFS Wrapper of old HFS+ partitions that you might use with a Power Mac.
