What is KextViewr FOR MAC?

KextViewr FOR MAC

Kernel extensions are modules loaded directly into the OS kernel that run at the highest privilege level and perform a variety of tasks. Keeping tabs on them is important, but performing this task from the command console is a bit tricky.

Key Features:

• Displays all loaded kernel extensions with file path


• Shows signing status and VirusTotal malware reports


• Filters list for specific items


• Refreshes list of loaded kernel extensions


• Full VirusTotal integration for malware detection


• Allows saving results to a JSON file


• Opens item's containing folder with a single click

As soon as you launch KextViewr, it begins gathering kext data and displays it in a list that can be filtered if you are trying to find a specific item. You can search for an entry by name, as well as include or exclude items based on their signing status.

The icon displayed next to each entry indicates whether the kext belongs to Apple, a third party, or is unsigned. Following that, you can view the extension's name, hash, size, and timing information.

KextViewr is a fairly straightforward app that does its job well, is very easy to use, and puts all the available kext data at your fingertips. It also offers VirusTotal detection reports, so you can keep track of malware and deal with potential infections.
