None String updated in the repository Tails wiki/src/news/rufus.*.po French	English We have not yet replaced balenaEtcher in our installation instructions for macOS because Rufus doesn't work on macOS. Also, as Tails doesn't work on Apple M1 and M2 processors, people who install Tails from macOS represent less than 10% of installations nowadays.

None String updated in the repository Tails wiki/src/news/rufus.*.po French	English After evaluating [[!tails_ticket 20423 desc="7 other tools"]], we finally chose [Rufus](https://rufus.ie/). We had [[!tails_ticket 7034 desc="tested Rufus many years ago"]], even before recommending balenaEtcher, but it was much harder to use and modified the Tails image in ways that were risky.

While we have not experienced or heard of any attacks against Tails users stemming from this change, we believe it introduces potential for abuse. To eliminate that risk altogether, we started looking again for alternatives. French 0 characters edited Current translation a month ago
None String updated in the repository Tails wiki/src/news/rufus.*.po French	English Shortly after, balenaEtcher started displaying ads.

None String updated in the repository Tails wiki/src/news/rufus.*.po French	English Since [[January 2019\|report_2019_01]], we had been recommending [balenaEtcher](https://etcher.balena.io/) to install Tails from Windows and macOS. We loved the simplicity of balenaEtcher, which was really easier to use and worked on macOS as well. French 0 characters edited Current translation a month ago
