Okay so I upgraded to Catalina and started having kernel panics, backed up my stuff with 2hours not having a kernel panic luckily. Then I deleted EVERYTHING, reinstalled OS to High Sierra and I'm still experiencing kernel panics like every 5 minutes. Can anyone help me? I literally can't go to genius bar because of quarantine. Thanks.
MacBook Pro 15", macOS 10.13
The EtreCheck report seems to indicate you do not have any 3rd party software installed.
That might imply a hardware error. It is a 2014 15" Macbook Pro, and I do not think there are any upgradable parts in that system. So I cannot point the finger at 3rd party components.
When the Apple Store near you re-opens, I would suggest a Genius Bar appointment and have them run their diagnostics against your Mac.
I reinstalled utorrent and a few applications after the kernel panics started happening again immediately right after I installed a fresh OS and deleted any previous data. I installed the operating system from the usb-bootable version off Apple's official website. The rewriting of text was because I put the report in notes, and made a pdf from it.. is there anything specific? Like what's causing it, preferred program to delete the infected virus?
There's nothing else I can do? Apple is closed till further notice 😔 Here's diagnostics everything's clean according to the test. I feel like this happened before and I was able to fix it using some terminal code.
Clean reinstall, no apps except etrecheck and it's still occurring...
updated pic, 0 errors. I refuse to believe it's a hardware issue when my macbook was working fine right up until I tried upgrading it to Catalina. By hardware i mean ram, battery, hardrive, etc.
your machine has not had everything deleted. Utorrent is not part of the operating system.
Also the rewriting of text shows your machine is infected with a virus.
Utorrent is not a good way to install operating systems or other software. Many fake versions are stored on torrent sites, and could carry viruses. The rewriting of the results of your report show just how bad it is. You have some serious data corruption on your system.
Use Disk Utility to erase your system when booted off recovery mode.
Do not reinstall Utorrent, Mackeeper, or advanced Mac cleaner or any Zeobit product.
See if you have a panic report (file's ending in .panic). If you have more than 1, please post a couple as the differences can be very useful:
Look for the Kernel Panic reports at:
Finder -> Go -> Go to Folder -> /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports
<http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2546>
<http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT200553>
The panic report should have ".panic" in the file name.
You can put the panic report in an "Additional Text" box when you Reply
Hi, okay so no diagnostic report's were shown. The next thing that showed any sort of log of information that may allude to why my Mac is kernel panicking is the system logs.
First three lines are worth noting? DirtyJetSamMemoryLimit, switch to XPC bootstrap, libcoreservices os/kern failure. This was between two kernel panics/restarts within one minute lol
XPC has to do with cross process communication. What this tells me is your panic is likely to do with memory issues.

A positive test means there needs to be hardware repaired.
A negative test is no guarantee there is no hardware to be repaired, but given your error messages it is highly likely that you need to backup your data and have Apple isolate what hardware is failing.
Sorry, I can't read that. Are errors indicated? Call 1-800-APLCARE if there are any. Apple offers mail in repair.
OK, were you plugged in when you ran the test? Oh your machine is out of warranty. What that means is you would be paying for it as an unwarranted repair from Apple.
Endless Kernel Panic loop, reinstalled OS and still happening?
