Mac won't find update to latest release Big Sur

My current Big Sur version is: 11.01. I know the newest Big Sur is 11.2.1.

But when I manually press search for updates it is saying that I have the newest version wich is not true?


See screenshot.


How can I push a new update to the Mac. (maybe a virus of something else is wrong) I get no errors by seaching for a new update

Since already on 11.0.1 which dates back to Nov 23, 2020 - what happens if Booting in Recovery Mode - Command + r - immediately at startup and choose Reinstall macOS ? In theory - the lasted Full Installer should come down and install. It might be 11.2 or 11.2.1 but doubt the 11.2.2 will come. If it works - at least there is just one more to come as of this writing.


If I were you, make a Time Machine before attempting anything more.
