Phantom Fuse Mac OS

Singularity is an experimental operating system (OS) which was built by Microsoft Research between 2003 and 2010. It was designed as a high dependability OS in which the kernel, device drivers, and application software were all written in managed code. Download Fuse for macOS for free. Fuse for macOS is a macOS port of The Free Unix Spectrum Emulator (Fuse) (an emulator of the 1980s home computer and various clones). Whenever mist hangs over Lake Orwell, sailors catch sight of a phantom castle just out of reach. As they draw near, it fades away, leaving only questions for all who have seen this 'Castle Strangerock.' Now, you must aid your charge in uncovering its secrets.even if it costs you your very soul.

In few weeks of new Macs with Apple Silicon M1 processor, it's clear that Apple has done a great job to make the transition from Intel chips smooth. Apps that are not updated to run natively on Arm architecture run smoothly using Rosetta 2 and it's hard to tell if you are using a native app or not.

But then there are apps that are crucial for a particular (and relatively small) user-base that are neither updated to run natively on new M1 Macs nor can be run with Rosetta 2. One example that comes to mind is Parallels Desktop that allows you to run operating systems like Windows virtually on a Mac. The popular virtualisation app simply can't run on M1 Macs – natively or otherwise – due to changes introduced in the way new Macs work.

Another app – and this one is crucial for me – is VeraCrypt. I use VeraCrypt to encrypt all my external storage and it relies on OS X FUSE to work. Although it wasn't immediately updated for the latest macOS version, VeraCrypt works with Big Sur using old OS X FUSE version. That however, is not true while running VeraCrypt on new M1 Macs.

To use FUSE on macOS Catalina, you need to download FUSE for macOS 3.10.3. But before that, it is better to uninstall FUSE, as some users reported that they tried to update the previous version of FUSE on macOS Catalina, but to no avail. Thus, completely remove FUSE from your Mac, so any remnants of it cannot affect your Mac performance.

Now, FUSE is not really an ‘app' on its own but rather an extension. Two encryption app I use daily – VeraCrypt and Cryptomator – rely on FUSE to work. My recommended zero-knowledge encrypted cloud provider pCloud also works thanks to FUSE. Because new Macs have changed how system-level extensions work, FUSE doesn't work out of the box.

FUSE 4.x.x has been updated for new Apple Silicon Macs but there is a workaround involved to actually make it work. Without this workaround, FUSE will simply not work, leaving apps that depend on in useless.

Now, it's not FUSE's (or VeraCrypt/Cryptomator/pCloud's) fault. That's just how new Macs work. According to FUSE developer Benjamin Fleischer, this should change in future when Apple fixes issues that can prevent third-party kernel extensions from loading.

To run FUSE – and apps that depend on it – macOS security has to be ‘downgraded' without which FUSE extension will be blocked.

To run an Apple Silicon Mac with reduced security, reboot your Mac. After the chime, press and hold the power button until you see ‘loading startup options' under Apple logo. Select Options and click Continue. Choose an administrator account and enter its password.

Now go to Utilities > Startup Security Utility and choose Reduced Security. Turn on both checkboxes underneath and click OK.

Reboot and visit System Preferences > Security and Privacy > General. Click the lock icon at the bottom, enter your password and click Allow in front of the message that says System Extension by Benjamin Fleischer was blocked.

Reboot once again and now FUSE for macOS should work as intended – helping VeraCrypt (and other apps like pCloud, Cryptomator etc.) work normally.

That's all, folks. That's how VeraCyrpt, Cryptomator and other apps that depend on FUSE for macOS work on new Apple Silicon M1 Macs.

What is macFUSE?

macFUSE allows you to extend macOS's native file handling capabilities via third-party file systems.

Features

As a user, installing the macFUSE software package will let you use any third-party FUSE file system. Legacy MacFUSE file systems are supported through the optional MacFUSE compatibility layer.

As a developer, you can use the FUSE SDK to write numerous types of new file systems as regular user space programs. The content of these file systems can come from anywhere: from the local disk, from across the network, from memory, or any other combination of sources. Writing a file system using FUSE is orders of magnitude easier and quicker than the traditional approach of writing in-kernel file systems. Since FUSE file systems are regular applications (as opposed to kernel extensions), you have just as much flexibility and choice in programming tools, debuggers, and libraries as you have if you were developing standard macOS applications.

How It Works

Phantom Fuse Mac Os Pro

In more technical terms, FUSE implements a mechanism that makes it possible to implement a fully functional file system in a user-space program on macOS. It provides multiple APIs, one of which is a superset of the FUSE API (file system in user space) that originated on Linux. Therefore, many existing FUSE file systems become readily usable on macOS.

The macFUSE software consists of a kernel extension and various user space libraries and tools. It comes with C-based and Objective-C-based SDKs. If you prefer another language (say, Python or Java), you should be able to create file systems in those languages after you install the relevant language bindings yourself.

The filesystems repository contains source code for several exciting and useful file systems for you to browse, compile, and build upon, such as sshfs, procfs, AccessibilityFS, GrabFS, LoopbackFS, SpotlightFS, and YouTubeFS.
