I have used this MBPMid2010_GPUFix on my macbook pro. But now I want to restore it back to the original status. How can we do that? because I want to get my mbp rapaired so before that i want it to be in original state so that i can verify if the repair works

Hello guys, I've been testing a way to revert the patch all evening long.
In fact, deleting the patch is pretty easy, you should open a Terminal (Application "Terminal" can be founder in your application folder" and follow these steps :

  1. Copy paste this following command line :
    sudo -S rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext
  2. Press ENTER, it will probably ask for you password
  3. Restart your PC

If you want to re-apply the patch again (because for e.g. the hardware fix does not work properly), then it's a bit more complicated. You have to follow this tutorial. In step 11, do not search for AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB.kext but AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext instead.

Finally run the MBP Patch program again and reboot your computer to re-apply the patch.

Thanks a bomb, Julian.
I deleted the patch as per instructions. (Needed to be preceded by sudo mount -uw / ).
So, I'm back to square one.
Probably the laptop will revert to daily crashes but at least the supermarket deliveries can be arranged.
I now need to research a hardware fix.
Best to you and all,
Mike
