Install the Touch Bar via app on old Macs and MacBooks

• All you need is the free Touché software. The tool is downloaded via the link "Free Download". You can then install it as usual. If necessary, you will find additional instructions here.
• Note that Touché only runs from macOS Sierra 10.12.1. You need at least variant 16B2657. We show you how to find out your version number in this practical tip.
• After installation, the TouchBar appears at the bottom of the screen. You can move and close them with the mouse if necessary. Otherwise, the Touch Bar works just like the correct Touch Bar on the MacBook Pro.
