Should look like this:

After install script will fix crossover as well as expired bottles (Thanks to @djsmax and @santaklouse).

For executing just on time after installation

sh ~/CrossOverLicence/main.sh execute

Run to uninstall

sh ~/CrossOverLicence/main.sh uninstall

If You use custom path to your Bottles

If you use custom path, using CXPatcher or Use External HD/SSD (feature intruduced on Crossover 24) the script $HOME/CrossOverLicence/main.sh can have the var BOTTLES_PATH be edited and then you can reload service by running:

launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.codeweavers.CrossOver.license.plist
launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.codeweavers.CrossOver.license.plist

and also

sh ~/CrossOverLicence/main.sh execute
