Replied In If there is a kext with the same name in Library and System, which one takes precedence?

“old KEXT” is “old version of my KEXT that’s somehow managed to find its way into /System/Library/Extensions/”.I want to know whether /System/Library/Extensions/ or /Library/Extensions/ KEXT works on the system.Regards,eskimo

I am concerned that the old KEXT in /System/Library/Extensions/ will work when the /Library/Extensions/ KEXT is new.Regards,eskimo

Up to 10.14, I could install my own KEXT which is not built-in to macOS.I can't install my own KEXT with Catalina.Therefore, I changed the installation location to Library/Extensions.Regards,eskimo

Thanks for getting back to me.My KEXT was installed in System/Library/Extensions.In 10.15, when installing to System/Library/Extensions, an error occurs and installation is not possible.Therefore, it was changed to Library/Extensions.As a result, a situation occurs in which KEXT with the same name exists in System/Library/Extensions and Library/Extensions.
