I have a region free DVD drive for watching foreign DVDs. The region setting counter on the drive never changes after I reset the region. However, the region setting counter changes in macOS nonetheless, in software.

In 32-bit OS X, I could just run a program called Region X to reset that counter, but the application doesn't work under 64-bit macOS. Is there a way around this? I presume a clean install would accomplish this, but I don't want to do a clean install. (I realize you can watch alternate region movies in vlc.)
