Hello, MarkAnthony79.


Your 32-bit apps will continue to work in macOS 10.13 High Sierra and 10.14 Mojave.

Support ended for 32-bit apps with macOS 10.15 so they will not run in Catalina nor Big Sur.


You will have to find out whether the developers of Cutting Master and Graphtec Studio have 64-bit version updates or upgrades to those packages that are compatible. Or you will have to find compatible replacements for them.


Otherwise you cannot run them in Catalina or Big Sur. There is no workaround.

If you must use those apps you'll have to keep your Mac running 10.14 Mojave or earlier.
