The question, if our Mac apps - especially the HSD Versions Cleaner - run on Apple M1 Macs and/or if there are any known problems, pops up every now and then. So it may be worth to provide some basic information about this topic here.

 

In a nutshell

• Q: Do your Mac apps run on Macs with Apple Silicon (M1)?
• A: Yes, they run very well on Apple M1 Macs under Rosetta 2.

 

Some outlook regarding the HSD Versions Cleaner

As mentioned above, version 2.1 of the HSD Versions Cleaner runs very well on Apple M1 Macs under Rosetta 2. We have it running on an Apple M1 MacBook Air for a while now. It's really amazing: even importing a huge amount of files feels as smooth as doing so on a MacBook Pro 16" - again - on the Apple M1 MacBook Air, version 2.1 of the app just runs under Rosetta 2!

Currently, we have a new version (V 2.2) of the app in the pipeline, which will run natively on Apple M1 Macs, and submission to the Mac App Store is scheduled for mid April (2021).

HSD Versions Cleaner V 2 has landed on the Mac App Store

and for those that have purchased version 1.x of the app, the upgrade is for free!

 

  

Opening current and old file versions

This new version allows users to open both current and old file versions directly from inside the app. This can be handy to compare the contents of old file versions or to copy&paste portions of an old file version into the appropriate current version, for instance.

 

Reverting current file versions to a certain previous file version

Starting with HSD Versions Cleaner V 2.0, the app can also be used to revert a current file version to a certain previous version of that file! If you have ever tried to use the means of the system to revert a current file version for which a huge amount of old file versions exists, you may know that this can lead to a never ending beachball. Use the HSD Versions Cleaner for that - it just does its job.

 

Support for iCloud Drive content

Starting with version 2.1 of the app, also the local copy of iCloud Drive content can be imported or it is no longer ignored if a complete user directory is imported.
