1 suggestionA native Apple Silicon build of a has been confirmed in the wild. To upgrade from the Intel version to the native Universal Binary, visit the Boris FX website or check within any Boris FX application you have installed for an update check option. Boris FX products typically ship Universal Binaries by default in recent releases, so downloading the latest installer from their site should automatically give you the native build. Alternatively, if a has been installed as part of a larger Boris FX product suite, updating the parent application will update this utility as well. After updating, your license settings and preferences will carry over without any manual migration needed.
