DiskMaker X 9 for macOS Catalina
DiskMaker X is a free macOS utility built with AppleScript that simplifies the creation of bootable USB installers from OS X and macOS installer files. It is designed for users who need to reinstall their operating system, perform clean installations, or create emergency recovery drives. The app works across various macOS versions and is widely used by system administrators, IT professionals, and casual Mac users who want a straightforward graphical interface for building bootable media without command-line complexity.
Suggested Replacements
1 suggestionDiskMaker X version 9.0 is an AppleScript-based application that runs natively on Apple Silicon Macs through Rosetta 2, but the developer has not released a native Apple Silicon or Universal Binary version. The app appears to be actively maintained with updates available on the official website (diskmakerx.com). Since the developer continues to support the application and AppleScript itself is well-maintained on macOS, you should check the official website periodically for a native update. In the meantime, the current version will continue to work on Apple Silicon via Rosetta 2. If you need a native alternative now, consider using the command-line tool `createinstallmedia` (included with macOS installers) or native apps like Balena Etcher, though these require different workflows than DiskMaker X's graphical interface.
