If Neither of the Above Works...


Two Things...

A. Go here: If your Mac Starts Up to a Question Mark - Apple Support


B. Reinstall the macOS:

Go Here: How to reinstall macOS from macOS Recovery - Apple SupportImportant: Be certain to create a backup of your Mac prior to all of this. That way, you can have something to restore from the Mac from, should anything go wrong with the reinstall. Once reinstalled, try this once more.
