## How to install

First, make sure you have installed macOS Sierra 10.12.1 **build 16B2657**, which adds support for the Touch Bar to macOS. You can download it from [this link](https://support.apple.com/kb/dl1897).

:warning: **Just having 10.12.1 is not enough, you need the right build number. 10.12.1 build 16B2555 does not have Touch Bar support, so it WILL NOT WORK!**
