At a minimum this is what's changed in 5.7 making the config.plist invalid. The O.C. Vanilla Guide for Coffee Lake was updated as well and just needs to be followed. The "Sanity Checker" at the end of the guide can also point out and questionable entries and I've found helpfull. You should take a swing at it.

  • Added TimeMachine detection to picker
  • Added early preview version of OpenCanopy
  • Fixed FS discovery on NVMe with legacy drivers
  • Added DirectGopCacheMode option for FB cache policy
  • Added KeyFiltering option to workaround buggy KB drivers
  • Added tool and custom entry separation in audio assistant
  • Added OpenControl tool to configure full NVRAM access from Shell
  • Added boot.efi debug protocol support for 10.15.4+
  • Added boot.efi performance logging for 10.15.4+
  • Added ProtectUefiServices quirk to fix DevirtualiseMmio on Z390
  • Replaced BOOTCAMP Windows with Windows to match the original
  • Added bundled OpenShell originally available as OpenCoreShell
  • Rework readlabel utility into disklabel with encoding support
  • Renamed FwRuntimeServices driver to OpenRuntime
  • Renamed AppleUsbKbDxe driver to OpenUsbKbDxe
  • Update builtin firmware
  • Fixed PowerTimeoutKernelPanic on 10.15.4
  • Fixed 4K section alignment in OpenRuntime to fix Linux booting on SKL
  • Introduced SyncRuntimePermissions to fix multiple memory permission flaws
  • Introduced RebuildAppleMemoryMap to fix macOS booting on Dell 5490
  • Removed ShrinkMemoryMap in favour of more advanced RebuildAppleMemoryMap
  • Marked EnableWriteUnprotector as deprecated on modern systems
  • Introduced ProtectMemoryRegions to fix memory region handling
  • Removed ProtectCsmRegion in favour of ProtectMemoryRegions
  • Renamed PickerAttributes to ConsoleAttributes
  • Introduced PickerAttributes as a matter of UI configuration

Please see here. #894


If you have issues with sound quality or iMessage try adding EMUVariablesUefi.efi to the EFI/Clover/driivers/UEFI folder

Thank you.

Everything works fine except the sidecar. Should it work with a cable connecting to the iPad?

It should but you're right that it's not working now. I'll have to get into after updating to OpenCore 5.7

I don't have a version for the NUC7 model yet. I just finished and am testing OC 5.7 for the NUC8s and have other priorities. It's something I plan to work on eventually but I don't have a time frame for you. It will look a to like the NUC8's version, ACPI SSDTs and patches are probably slightly different but can be copied from Clover and kexts are almost the same except for USB.

Forgot about this because I don't use it, had it set up once and then dialed it. Sidecar is working with USB Cable after enabling Hand Off on my iPad and adding my computer as a trusted device. See more here:

Sidecar system requirements
Sidecar requires a compatible Mac using macOS Catalina and a compatible iPad using iPadOS 13:
Mac using macOS Catalina
  • MacBook Pro introduced in 2016 or later
  • MacBook introduced in 2016 or later
  • MacBook Air introduced in 2018 or later
  • iMac introduced in 2017 or later, plus iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2015)
  • iMac Pro
  • Mac mini introduced in 2018 or later

Good afternoon after the help of Leesureone to make my intel nuc 8i5 work with the latest version of Catalina,
I am trying to do the same in another intel nuc model 6i5SYB but I even got to install dual windows 10 and upgrade to Catalina until the last phase where when it starts up it restarts without going to the last step it gives an IGPU error at the start of the FGX firmware, please, could someone give me some hint. Tks.
