I've had this issue happen before and what I did was simply start over fresh to enable tb3 enabler.

But before starting with a clean slate, after updating to a new os release, I've gotten this error before when trying to apply tb3 enabler:

unknown file, won't backup (md5=636a41fc171108b5953de7d8951e0756)

Any idea how to resolve this error aside from a clean os install?

actually, nevermind, I forgot that you can just manually edit the IOThunderboltFamily.kext file

Hello,

I am having the same issue and have no idea how to manually edit the IOThunderboltFamily.kext.

Could you please explain this procedure?

Many thanks in advance!

Anthony

Just had the same problem. Anyone know how to fix? Also there was never any mention of having to be a root user to run this script, not something I have done before but worked it out but would have nice if it was mentioned (or maybe I missed it?).
