Not arguing with you at all, but for those like me who just don't want to bother (risk?!?!?!) those insertions I thought I'd let the more untutored folks know that they could have a new problem if not careful!!
Technically, you don't insert code.

On Windows, all it does is rename renderer-test.exe to renderer-test.xxx, something you can do in Windows Explorer.

On Mac, as mentioned in the OP, it just disables renderer-test from executing.

There's really no risk. Worst case, program fails to open and you can just rename renderer-test.xxx back to renderer-test.exe on Windows or add execution ability on Mac.
