# Changelog: improved nix-darwin support for Determinate!

**[Determinate Systems](https://daily.dev/sources/determinate-systems)** · 2 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Determinate 0.33 ships with Nix 2.26.2 and brings improved nix-darwin integration — users should now set `nix.enable = false` in their nix-darwin config to let Determinate manage Nix installation. FlakeHub Cache is no longer added as a substituter until login, removing a confusing error. Enterprise macOS fixes include support for systems with Time Machine disabled via MDM and better volume-mounting error notifications. The installer also gains several reliability improvements: tolerating unlocked-but-unmounted APFS volumes, cleaning up nix.conf on uninstall, handling corrupted nix.conf files, auto-creating /etc/profiles.d, and better resilience on XFS filesystems.
