## Applying Post Install Volume Patches

Post Install Volume Patches, sometimes also called root patches, are patches that have to be installed to disk for some older Macs to gain back functionality.

OCLP will automatically root patch your system during a first time install **if the USB install media was created within OCLP.** Users will also be prompted to install these patches after macOS updates or whenever patches are not detected on the system. We recommend rebuilding OpenCore with the latest version of OCLP to take advantage of these new features.

Users can also see whether applicable patches have been installed, date and version the system was root patched with in the Post-Install Menu.

:::warning

If you need to use Migration Assistant to bring over data to your new macOS install, it is **highly recommended** to avoid restoring from inside Setup Assistant and waiting to install root patches until after the transfer is complete. If root patches were automatically installed, you can use the options available in the OCLP app to remove them.

Using Migration Assistant while patches are installed can lead to an unbootable system, requiring a reinstall of macOS.
