Update on support for macOS 26?

Hi NetDrive Support,

Is there any updates on fixing the issues with NetDrive 3 to support macOS. Please see my previous threads where I helped to diagnose the issues.

Sadly, I have temporarily switched to CloudMounter on macOS. I would prefer to stay with NetDrive, but I will cancel my NetDrive license for my mac if the issue is not resolved soon.

Best regards,
Charlie

Hello Charlie,

Thank you again for all the detailed information you previously shared regarding the ndfuse.kext loading issue on macOS 26 (Tahoe). As you noted, macOS 26 appears to validate kernel extensions differently, which caused kmutil to reject the kext even though the signature itself was valid.

We have since updated the kext bundle structure, re-signed it with the proper Developer ID certificate, re-notarized it, and prepared a new macOS test build for verification.

You can download the test build here:

NetDrive 3.18.838 (macOS test build)
https://downloads.bdrive.com/netdrive/builds/f3fc28d6fe2a41089d72a5a7a5eb2f91/NetDriveInstaller-3.18.838.dmg

This build includes:

  • Updated kext bundle structure
  • Revised code signing and notarization for macOS 26
  • Improvements to the LaunchDaemon responsible for loading the kext

When you have time, could you please try this version and let us know whether the issue persists?
Your feedback has been extremely valuable, and it will help us finalize full macOS 26 support.

Thank you again for your patience and cooperation.
Best regards,
NetDrive Support Team

I downloaded and installed 3.18.383. It installed correctly and mounted the drives. I verified that I can read/write the drives and that they mount at login per my settings.

It seems faster than the previous working version.

Many thanks,
Charlie
