KensingtonWorks is a preference-pane control panel for macOS System Settings that lets users customize Kensington trackball, mouse and presenter devices. It provides button remapping, pointer sensitivity adjustment, and device-specific configuration options. The preference pane is installed as part of the Kensington driver and support software bundle for these input devices. A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionA native Apple Silicon build of KensingtonWorks already exists. Because this is a preference pane bundled inside Kensington's driver software rather than a standalone app, the way to get the native version is to reinstall the full KensingtonWorks package from Kensington. Visit the Kensington support page for your specific device model (trackball, mouse or presenter) and download the latest macOS driver — the current releases are Universal Binaries that include the native preference-pane component. Run the installer to replace your existing Intel-only version. Once installed, the native preference pane will appear in System Settings under the Kensington section, and you should see improved responsiveness and lower battery drain on your M-series Mac compared to the Rosetta version.
