- Bypass Account Shutdown: Handles authentication locally and disables forced sign-out so Arc continues to launch and work after official cloud services end.
- Keep Your Entire Workflow: Works directly on your installed
Arc.app— your Spaces, pinned tabs, favorites, history, and extensions stay right where they are. - One-Click & Reversible: Automatically backs up original files and lets you restore your installation to its untouched state at any time.
Requires macOS with Python 3 and Xcode Command Line Tools (xcode-select --install). Quit Arc before running.
