ForkLift is an advanced dual-pane file manager and remote file transfer client for macOS. It handles local file operations with features like multi-rename, archive management, and app deletion, while also supporting connections to remote servers via SFTP, FTP, WebDAV, Amazon S3, Google Drive, SMB, AFP and other protocols. The app integrates with Finder-like workflows and includes tools for folder synchronization, quick preview, terminal integration, and file comparison. Power users and system administrators rely on ForkLift for efficient file management across local and remote storage. 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 ForkLift is already available — the community has confirmed it running on real Macs. The simplest path to upgrade is to visit binarynights.com and download the latest version directly; the vendor's download page automatically serves the Universal Binary on M-series Macs, so the standard installer is all you need. Alternatively, if ForkLift was installed via Homebrew, running `brew upgrade forklift` (or `brew upgrade` if you're updating all formulae at once) will fetch the native build. After upgrading, your existing preferences, favorites, tabs and remote connection settings carry over without any manual migration. You should see noticeably faster file operations and reduced CPU usage compared to running the Intel build under Rosetta.
