Developers invest huge amounts of resources in making software. Distributing cracked software is illegal in many countries, and it’s both unethical and immoral.

It makes sense that if it discovers one of those trusted developers is cracking software that belongs to other developers and over which they have intellectual property rights, it would no longer trust that developer. Why has Apple done this?Īpple’s recognized developer program is designed to make your Mac more secure by only allowing applications from developers it trusts to install on your Mac without further intervention from you. That means that it’s much more difficult to install, and multiple users have reported that it has also led to it stop working. However, Apple has revoked TNT’s position as a recognized developer, so the operating system no longer gives its signature a free pass. TNT’s code signature was trusted by Apple, so when macOS’ Gatekeeper saw software carrying the signature trying to install, it allowed it to continue. Why has CleanMyMac by TNT stopped working? It strips MacPaw’s code signature from the app, replaces it with its own, cracks it so it will run without a license, and then distributes it on free blog pages and torrents. Unfortunately, that popularity makes it a target for people and organizations who crack software and distribute it illegally.

It’s very popular and has had excellent reviews from sites like Macworld and Cult of Mac. What is CleanMyMac by TNT?ĬleanMyMac X is an application made by MacPaw that updates, resets, and uninstalls apps, scans your Mac for malware, and clear out junk files from your system to improve performance. Here’s everything you need to know to fix crashing CleanMyMac by TNT. If you’ve tried to launch CleanMyMac X recently and it’s crashed, or it gets stuck in a loop when you run a Smart Scan, you likely have a version distributed by TNT.
