## How to increase screen resolution for macOS-Simple-KVM
|
||
|
||
_(Thanks to [passthroughpo.st](https://passthroughpo.st/new-and-improved-mac-os-tutorial-part-1-the-basics/) and [urcomputertechnics.com](http://urcomputertechnics.com/how-to-mount-efi-partition-on-macos-mojave/) for the tips.)_
|
||
|
||
1. In the macOS Finder, look for **EFI** in the left bar under **Volumes**. If it isn't visible you will have to mount it:
|
||
- Open the macOS Terminal and type `diskutil list` and look for the disk/partition location of the EFI. (There may be more than one.)
|
||
- Type `sudo diskutil mount diskYsZ`, using the disk/partition location name where you see EFI.
|
||
- The **EFI** partition will appear in the left Finder bar under **Volumes**.
|
||
- If you don't see anything in that volume after browsing to it, try the other ones that you found in `diskutil`.
|
||
2. In the **EFI** volume, go into the `Clover` directory and open the `config.plist` file in the macOS text editor.
|
||
3. There should be a section of the file that looks like this:
|
||
|
||
```````````````````
|
||
<key>ScreenResolution</key>
|
||
<string>1280x720</string>
|
||
```````````````````
|
||
|
||
- Edit that to your preferred screen resolution.
|
||
- Some odd/intermediate resolutions like 1366×768 may not work well. Try to stick to more common 16:9, 16:10, and 4:3 form factors.
