I'm not sure if there's another way to install applets without it.

https://github.com/lykahb/neotools can install applets and is my recommendation for everyone if you are comfortable with the command line... However, when the memory fills up, you have to erase the ROM and then manually reinstall all of the applets you want.

If any of that sounds scary, then maybe you want to still try Manager. For now, Neo Manager is available via the Internet Archive:

Neotools (https://github.com/lykahb/neotools) might work but that's Linux/Mac only.

Edit: Ninja'd lol

but that's Linux/Mac only.

I think it can work on Windows too... Or at least, there's libusb for Windows. I'm pretty sure I've used neotools on Windows before.

TheTechRobo commented 1 year ago

Ah I just got confused since the instructions are for linux and mac only.

chrisbrandow commented 1 year ago

thanks. I'll try Neotools. sorry I overlooked that.

FWIW, as you likely know, neomanager is 32-bit only, so can't run on any new Macs.
