  1. Oh shit I wanted to downgrade from Big Sur to Mac OS Catalina and I found your video again I checked the date because you said something about if im watching this 2 years later and saw that you made this video on august 8 2020 and I’m watching this on august 8 2021 lol 😂

  2. hey. I did the same thing as you about backing up my apps like Photoshop, final cut and Lightroom so I can restore them on my Mac os Catalina after downgrading to from Big Sur since final cut isn't compatible. Hope it works

  3. I did this already because when I had Windows mac was gone so I reinstalled mac and Windows went away but I still got Mac OS Catalina because Big Sur is a beta and I just reinstalled Windows fast so I can get the two of them but
