How to Fix Has anyone got a bunch of 'Topfield PVR Recording' files in their EFI partition
Boot failures are caused by firmware settings, incorrect OpenCore configuration, or USB mapping problems.
Quick Fix Steps
- Boot verbose: Add
-v keepsyms=1 debug=0x100. - Check firmware: Disable Secure Boot, Fast Boot, CFG Lock; set SATA to AHCI.
- Validate OpenCore: Run ocvalidate or ProperTree clean snapshot.
- Recreate installer: Fresh USB drive, different port.
Verification
- Verbose boot passes the previous stop.
- Installer sees the target disk.

Original Question: "Has anyone got a bunch of 'Topfield PVR Recording' files in their EFI partition?"
I've been running macOS Catalina on an AMD-based hackintosh (OpenCore 0.5.9) since June without any issues. I mounted the EFI partition today to make a change in the config.plist and found 188 files of the type Topfield PVR Recording in addition to the logs.
Does anyone has an idea what are those and how to get rid of them, stop the system from producing them?
It's the first time I see something similar. I did a quick google search but did not find anything on this related to OpenCore.
Thanks in advance for your help.
