macOS Catalina ERROR_7E7AEE96CA by updating to 10.15.2.

Hello everyone


I have issues to install the latest update to my MacBook


Every time I try to install the latest update MacOS will show the error: ERROR_7E7AEE96CA and it will skip the update process.

According to the community it was a known issue with MacMojave.

Do you have any suggestions how to deal with this issue under Catalina ? Is there any kind of "combo-update" for macOS 10.15.2 ?


Cheers

Alex

Are you sure you are on Catalina 10.15.1, click on the Apple top left of your screen and click on About This Mac.


The Combo should install fine as long as you are running either Catalina version 10.15.1 or 10.15.0.


If you are definitely on 10.15.1 then you could also try the 'delta' update from here, https://support.apple.com/kb/DL2025?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US once downloaded double-click to install.


If you are still having problems try installing either the delta or combo in Safe Mode,
