You can install a virtualbox and install a virtual OS of old one before the new version of NodeBox coming out. aman</p></div>ahumantag:support.nodebox.net,2012-11-01:Comment/491209162021-04-04T22:20:52Z2021-04-04T22:20:52ZBig Sur Workarounds<div><p>Aman,</p>
<p>I know. But over many years in tech I've learned there is no going back. You can resist the tide of progress for awhile (delaying upgrades as I have done), but sooner or later you must move forward or die.</p>
<p>Big Sur has some rough edges, but nothing serious. Since more and more NodeBoxers will be using it, I figured I may as well take the plunge and get used to it. Hence this discussion thread.</p>
<p>I do worry that the next OS (on Mac or Windows) may finally bring NodeBox to its knees. Frederik's recent upgrade did fix one problem introduced by a newer OS, and in the process taught him how to publish to newer security standards, so that keeps us alive a little longer (though the Windows side still needs another patch). Time will tell how long we can keep NodeBox afloat.</p>
<p>If you can fork NodeBox, that might be be another path forward.</p>
