BEWARE!

This app somehow ruined one of the thunderbolt ports on a 6 month old MacBook Pro. Resetting SMC/PRAM and reinstalling MacOS did not fix it. It seems like it somehow corrupted the hardware, as the port will no longer connect to a display even in recovery mode. Luckily the other ports still work fine with external displays.

This software should be removed. Until then, use with extreme risk.

Someone please explain the mechanism by which this software breaks a thunderbolt port? I've looked at the source code of the last release and I find it borderline absurd that this claim was taken seriously.

Truth be told, those Thunderbolt ports are sometimes very picky. I have a brand new MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015) and it always had an issue with one of the Thunderbolt ports. One works flawlessly every time, one requires a restart to make it work.

EDIT: Also, yes, I don't think the code is malicious, the problem that occurred is normal for Apple. Wait... That didn't sound right. I wanted to say that the problem with Thunderbolt ports can happen when using them. Maybe there was a spark that caused the port to short circuit.

I was about to suggest that you take your brand new MacBook Pro to simply get fixed when I realized that you are referring to a 2-3 year old machine. I still wonder if Apple would fix an obvious hardware problem which you have "always" had, but it should be clarified that by "brand new" you are referring to a computer that's 2-3 years old. Thunderbolt ports should work, period.
