+### 1. Boot into the macOS installer
+
+- Plug in your Hackintosh USB installer.
+- At the OpenCore/Clover boot picker, choose “Install macOS …” (the installer).
+- Wait until you reach the macOS Utilities screen.
+
+### 2. Open Terminal
+
+- In the top menu bar, click **Utilities → Terminal**.<br>
+  (This gives you a terminal even if your system disk can’t boot.)
+
+
+### 3. Find your EFI partition
+
+In Terminal, type:
+
+```bash
+diskutil list
+```
+
+- This shows all disks and partitions.
+- Look for your macOS drive (usually disk0).
+- The EFI partition is typically disk0s1, 200 MB, formatted as EFI.
+
+### 4. Mount the EFI partition
+
+Example:
+
+```bash
+diskutil mount disk0s1
+```
+
+After this, the EFI partition will appear in Finder as EFI.
+
+### 5. Access your backup EFI
+
+- Also mount your macOS main partition (APFS or HFS+). Example:
+
+```bash
+diskutil mount disk0s2
+```
+
+- Now you can browse to your Desktop/Documents folder where your backup EFI is stored:<br>
+  Path will be something like `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/Users/YourName/Desktop/EFI`.
+
+### 6. Copy backup EFI to EFI partition
+
+Use Terminal `cp -R` to copy:
+
+```bash
+cp -R "/Volumes/Macintosh HD/Users/YourName/Desktop/EFI" /Volumes/EFI/
+```
+
+⚠️ Make sure to delete the broken EFI first if it exists:
+
+```bash
+rm -rf /Volumes/EFI/EFI
+```
+
+Then copy:
+
+```bash
+cp -R "/Volumes/Macintosh HD/Users/YourName/Desktop/EFI" /Volumes/EFI/
+```
+
+### 7. Reboot
+
+```bash
+reboot
+```
+
+
+Remove the USB → system should boot from your restored EFI.
+
+--- 
+
+#### 📌 Note 
+
+If you renamed your macOS volume to `masOS`, replace `Macintosh HD` with `masOS` in all commands.
+
+For example, to copy your EFI backup:
+
+```bash
+cp -R "/Volumes/masOS/Users/YourName/Desktop/EFI" /Volumes/EFI/
+```
+
+#### Additional commands
+
+1. Mount the macOS partition:
+```bash
+diskutil mount disk0s2
+```
+2. Go to your Desktop folder:
+
+```bash
+cd "/Volumes/masOS/Users/YourUserName/Desktop"
+```
+
+- Replace `YourUserName` with your macOS account name.
+
+- To check usernames:
+
+```bash
+ls "/Volumes/masOS/Users"
+```
+
+3. List files/folders on Desktop:
+
+```bash
+ls
+```
