Q: MacBook Air 2015 stuck on loading screen after installing update.
I installed updates onto my MacBook Air and when I restarted it the loading bar would just stay in the middle. I've used Disk Utility in recovery mode to "First Aid" my disk, it was fine. I tried booting into safe mode but the loading bar would just hang at the end. I've reset the PRAM, but nothing works. Please help.
*Loading Bar*
MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)
