macOS Big Sur 11.5.2 update

I have a MacBook Air M1, 2020 and this update comes up as


macOS Big Sur 11.5.2 11.5.2 - Restart Required


macOS 11.5.2 includes bug fixes for your Mac.


Does this seem right ?


After reading about the issues others have been having maybe I should wait for the next update? Thoughts ?

Provided you have been maintaining regular Time Machine backups, then click Restart and let the operating system update itself. Of course it seems right, as Apple rarely lists a litany of fixes they perform in the operating system. My M1 mini is working perfectly with the 11.5.2 update installed.

As previous posting have outlined - good to keep the machine up-to-date if for no other Eason to fix bugs and or security issues.


To minimize possible issues the updating to 11.5.2


Do you have a Rescue Plan In-Place. This comprises having 3 Backups using 2 methods and 1 Off Site incase of Theft, Loss or Natural Disasters. A Time Machine Backup  is very useful and can be used to Revert to Previous Working macOS. For addition purposes - two Tested Bootable Clones each to separate external drives. This is insurance incase the upgrades goes sideways. At least one Tested Clone and / or Time Machine Backup should be Off - Site
