If you want to get the best performance from your Mac, that’s money well-spent. Among the additional features which are enabled when you make the in-app purchase is a superb graphical view of recently collected analytics data. Select the Performance item at the left (only enabled in the Pro version), scroll down until you reach the Analytics section, and click on the button to show the analytics chart.// = Howard Oakley was speaking above about an "in-App" purchase; that was at a time when EtreCheck had been vetted by Apple and was available from the Apple App Store. That, of course, is no longer the case. Does anyone reading here actually *USE* the EtreCheck software and enjoy interaction with the developer? = There a question, too, about it possibly being "Malware"! https://discussions.apple.com/thread/254105983?sortBy=rank = Your thoughts requested, folks! 🙂 -- Does it leave a 'back door' open on your Mac? Indeed, who would know? Who has checked?!!! https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/etrecheckpro-process-redacted.2291964/?post=29887128#post-29887128
