Added as last resort - restart on Recovery Mode - Intel ( Command + r ) or Apple Silicon . Choose Reinstall macOS.


This should bring down the latest version and commence the installation without o=touching the Preferences, Application and personal files.


A Time Machine Backup  is very useful and can be used to Revert to Previous Working macOS.  and should be done Before Attempting

There are factors:


1 - Like poor Wifi connection


2 - Slow wifi connection


3 - Too many other people downloading at the same time and Apple Severs are overloaded


4 - Software on the computer interfering with the download process including AntiVirus Software


5 - Running behind a VPN which may increase Packet losses which may corrupt the download.


6 - If via wifi too many Other devices using the wifi at the same time reducing the Bandwidth to your computer. 


7 - Best Results are via Ethernet Cable to Router
