It shows that the owner of the file is not satisfied, therefore blocking access to this file or not.

you did not do it right

About the Clover EFI Backup folder location, who decided that it should be on the desktop?

I also dislike this unilateral decision…

I would give the bulk files and everyone puts them by hand and backs up EFI independently where they believe best.

Gathering again If it doesn't come as before, then intentionally think yes.
Sorry I was curious, very curious to try it.

Discussion about backup is close for me here on that thread

leaves the choice of the creator !!!

no one should even complain since someone did it, sometimes just the way they describe it!

why didn't you do it?


And why should I do that? Because you say so?


You miss the point here. Of course I can do it but it will never be in the release version. What some others and I are asking is why desktop should be the default location?

I am 200% in agreement with you


Well that´s your opinion… Are we allowed to disagree?

 

Anyway, I don’t really care to be honest.

and why didn't you do it and introduce yourself as i did Chris?

he found his taste and whoever uses and does nothing can only say MERCI

because you shouldn't have an opinion, even more because the opinion is free! BUT not in the way that you initially comment !!!

now after a solution found there is no lack of knowledge (as always) but in reality it is always the same we expect others! in my case I wouldn't know how to do it !!!


let's be honest, there are other problems yet to be solved before an EFI Backup folder that in reality few or no one will use it and be deleted immediately!

there is a good continuity of Day / Night as we are in the same country

Well... this discussion on EFI backup,

Since, it's all about what is better for Clover itself....

I would repeat myself once again,

As i previously stated, Clover.app made by @vector sigma to take care of the (now solved) impossibility for the installer package script to handle the new systems restrictions a.s.o, already makes a backup onto Desktop called cloverbackup,

now the script modified by @chris1111 add another back-up folder onto desktop as well...

To be honest, like it or dislike it is not what matters most, just a question of coherence, at least when modifing a code would be nice to take in consideration what is already implemented and take that as start point for what is going to be..

 

Now concerning what would be the best option, i would have chosen (since already present and most directly related to any Clover dependencies) the src folder itself...

but that's just my opinion

As @mifjpnsan states, it also a question of ethics and aesthetics :)

my 2 cents.

At least I never use the clover app

The Clover package has nothing to do with Clover.app they are two totally different things that's probably why the clover app has not taken into account that the package made the backup on the root disk before the change.

Well when Clover.app was made it took plenty into consideration the fact clover could no more make use of root dir for its backups, that's the reason why it does it onto desktop...

 

Then the fact you do not make use of it, it's not really a valid excuse :P ... I personally do not use it either, and I do not use the Installer package as well.

 

Anyway, Clover.app does exactly the same work as the package = installs the boot-loader on the EFI of your choice and makes a backup.

or did i miss something strictly pkg related?

anyway long story short, as per their actual backup behaviour, both are annoying... lol

you are not using the EFI folder I sent ...
as I said NAO is of no help and you are doing differently, read my first comment where I explained what was already EVIL

I am 200% in agreement with you

@PG7, attached is the ioreg generated after booting with your EFI folder.

Jorge’s iMacv2.zip

from ioreg the PM is OK
you have 14 USB 2.0 HS
and 1 USB 3 SS
so the USB's aren't mapped and seeing that you have USBinjectall, you don't have port limit patches to unlock them all
SMCLinghtSensor what would you need?

Does anyone use a codeless kext USBMap.kext (or equivalent USBPorts, USBPower, etc.) with CLover 5126 ?

I have one, it works in OpenCore, it doesn't work with Clover. I can see it in the log, but it seems to be ignored. Is there any other settings I might have forgotten ?

Thanks a lot @PG7. I’m going to test your EFI.

 

read well what I explained!
- you are using the folder I sent, but not as I sent it
reason: you are using SMBIOS iMac15.1 when I sent iMac14.2 for the reason I explained in my comment!

- I also said to do with this EFI folder a new mapping of USB ports and delete the two Kext USB ports as well as the limitation patch for Clover's USB ports on the Quirks (I also don't know if it is working on BigSur NOT TESTED)

after all this yes test

you can check in the EFI folder that I posted that in the config.plist this is the SMBIOS iMac14.2 and you sent me the iroeg with iMac15.1 ....
