3 items for the agenda today: OS update - to the latest version of Catalina - 10.15.5
In relation hereto - safety and security updates, get the best out of your setting, and Finally - Antivirus/Malware protection.
I am still on the old version, 10.15.4 Mainly (!) because my external Timemachine disk is broken. Yes - backups can be made using THESE instructions.
Absolutely recommended, and this I do too. But I also have a secondary backup especially for situations, that could occur around OS updates. Not that they do - but IF !! I plan to get a USB backup done by tomorrow, and will keep U updated.
But do you know you own update settings? Mine look like this, go to System Preferences/Software Update
Please DO note, that I have removed the check mark in Automatically Keep My Mac Up To Date ! And the WHY IS THAT is revealed once you press Advanced
Now HERE I left out some check marks, but kept (AND THIS IS THE VITAL ONE !) the one allowing to install system data and secutiry updates.
THIS is very important. You can allways check the state of your computer under your System Information (or System Report via ) / Software / Installations
