SIP and lib validation disabled but still does not work
Does not work on M1 Pro OS 12.3.
Symptoms: Grays out the top bar, kills the dock, disables swiping to another desktop.
One thing I am not clear about -- to disable SIP, do you do (I have tried both, but want to know which to focus on, since there are so many steps involved)
- csrutil disable in Recovery?
OR
This approach?
2) Disable [System Integrity Protection]
Open Terminal.app and run the command
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.security.libraryvalidation.plist DisableLibraryValidation -bool true
Boot to recovery mode by rebooting and holding down ⌘ + R
Open the Terminal from the menubar and run the command
csrutil enable --without debug --without fs
Reboot
I got it to work. I used approach no. 1 above:
csrutil disable in Recovery
and DID NOT use approach no. 2 above.
I kept trying and trying and all of a sudden, the dock disappeared and then came back after a few seconds.
I spoke too soon. I had got it to work but after restarting, I am facing the same problems again. Not sure what a stable, full-proof sequence of steps is. Maybe someone else can pick up the baton.
hey @jslegendre and @w0lfschild. Any chance you got to meddle with a Pro M1 to suggest a way forward to use MacForge on them?
I can add to this saying that it doesn't work on M1 Pro running 12.6 either.

I tried both methods too, but nothing changed; no extension seems to work at the moment.
Looks like this repo is dead and MacForge is too on Mac M1s.
Just wanted to share that I did get this to work on my Mac M1. I don't recall the exact steps I took, but shortly after I posted above, I was able to get it to work using MacForge. The tool works flawlessly. Literally have had Zero trouble with it since then. Keep at it. Finally, if nothing works, buy the creator a great lunch and ask for some help :-) . He deserves it!
Hi all, just wanted to update this old post. MacForge does work on M1 Macs, but you need to make sure you have MacForge 1.2.0 (Beta 2). This can be found in the download of Spaces Renamer (https://github.com/dado3212/spaces-renamer). Still need to disable csrutil of course. Hope this helps anyone in the future who finds this post!
