Oshawa, Ontario, Canada
What it is
EtreCheckPro is a macOS diagnostic tool for investigating Mac problems. It detects over 70 specific problems, distinguishes major from minor issues, and creates an anonymous text report designed for sharing online. It can identify security configuration problems and detect and remove malware. The app also shows storage use and helps correct storage problems, but those features require Full Disk Access. The free download includes basic reports and diagnostics, and supports command-line use from Terminal or ssh. It can run from the Downloads folder without installation. The optional Power User package adds computer-generated step-by-step solutions and detailed displays for hardware, operating system, storage, networking, software and performance, along with system Analytics and Insights charts. The one-time Power User upgrade costs $19.99 and covers up to six different computers. EtreCheckPro supports Intel and Apple Silicon Macs running macOS 10.13 through macOS 27. The maker says the Power User package is primarily designed for end users and that it does not offer a multiuser license for consultants or IT support. Technical support is provided by email.
