## macOS
If using the default Wine prefix (`~/.wine`), you can follow the same steps as in Wine.
The steps for MacOS are almost the same, but due to the way `$TMPDIR` works, you will have to install a **LaunchAgent**.
Registering as a service [is not supported](https://github.com/EnderIce2/rpc-bridge/issues/1#issuecomment-2103423242 "Bridge can't get $TMPDIR unless is set with --rpc. See note below").
- Download the latest build from the [releases](https://github.com/EnderIce2/rpc-bridge/releases)
- Open the archive and make the `launchd.sh` script executable by doing: `chmod +x launchd.sh`
- To **install** the LaunchAgent, run `./launchd install` and to **remove** it simply run `./launchd remove`.
The script will add a LaunchAgent to your user, that will symlink the `$TMPDIR` directory to `/tmp/rpc-bridge/tmpdir`.
!!! info "Note"
You will need to launch the `bridge.exe` file manually in Wine at least one time for it to register and launch automatically the next times.
Since macOS doesn't have `/proc/self/environ` and `$TMPDIR` is neither always set nor the same after reboots, so you will need to [add `--rpc "$TMPDIR"` to the `bridge.exe` arguments](https://github.com/EnderIce2/rpc-bridge/issues/1#issuecomment-2104797235).
If you don't encounter any issues, you can ignore this step.
