Update & uninstall
A new version of Orifold is out, or you want to remove the app entirely.
Update
Section titled “Update”From inside Orifold
Section titled “From inside Orifold”Choose Check for Updates… from the Orifold menu, or open Settings → Updates. If a newer version exists, click Download — Orifold fetches the signed disk image and checks it against the release’s published SHA-256 checksum before it can install. When it’s verified, click Install Update…; Orifold makes sure any open documents are saved first, then opens the disk image so you can drag the new version into Applications.
Automatic checks are off by default. Turning them on lets Orifold look about once a day — only ever a version check. It never downloads or installs anything on its own, and a check never sends anything but a request for the latest version number.
The About Orifold window (in the Orifold menu) also shows, right under the version, whether you’re up to date or an update is waiting — one click there opens the same Software Update window.
Roll back to the previous version
Section titled “Roll back to the previous version”When Orifold installs an update, it quietly keeps a verified copy of the version you were on. If a new build ever misbehaves, choose Help → Restore Previous Version…. Orifold confirms first, makes sure your open documents are saved, then closes, checksum- and signature-verifies the saved copy, swaps it back into place, and reopens — your documents untouched. The menu item is greyed out until there’s actually a saved version to go back to.
If the app won’t launch at all, you can do the same from Terminal against the saved archive in ~/Library/Application Support/Orifold/Rollback/:
scripts/install-mac.sh --restore ~/Library/Application\ Support/Orifold/Rollback/Orifold-<version>.zipFrom your Desktop
Section titled “From your Desktop”Double-click Orifold.command on your Desktop. It checks the latest release before launching, and sweeps up any stray Orifold.app copies (for example, one dragged straight into /Applications) so only one install remains. That’s the entire procedure.
Homebrew
Section titled “Homebrew”brew updatebrew upgrade --cask udhawan97/orifold/orifoldUninstall
