    4 Important to note is that many users who installed IPG likely did so as a part of the quite popular iStat Menus system monitoring suite. It's not included by default but it is required for an optional CPU boost clock monitoring feature. Just identifying a likely culprit for many home/freelance users.

    8 As an aside, and while I have no solid proof to support this, I believe this issue affects many more macOS host users than appears at first glance. The macOS host subforum seems to be full of posts with mysterious guest crash issues that go unresolved. The commonly repeated wisdom seems to be that users need to uninstall/reinstall and make sure their kexts are loaded properly. While I'm sure that solves many users' issues, I just have a hunch that IPG is the hidden culprit for many cases where a reinstall doesn't help.
