Jan 31, 2016 11:14 PM in response to tony_steadby Nottheaverageguy,This worked for me while I was using OS Yosemite. I just finished my upgrade to El Captan and I get the same problem. I ran through the same steps but I cannot delete the "Macbookpro8_1.plist" file. I will get a notification saying that the OS X needs it. Does anyone know how to fix it now?
