kernel panic

When the computer is turned on, it happens that, after a period of random start-up, it restarts. After that, a report appears.

The computer has already been initialized and MacOs reinstalled.

What can I do?

Page fault is a reference to memory not owned by the task that is running.

Kernel Panics are predominately caused by hardware faults or faulty third-party kernel extensions.



Learn what to do if your computer restarts or shuts down unexpectedly, or you get a message that your computer restarted or shut down because of a problem.

Uninstall all third party apps that are Cleaners/Optimizers/Anti-Virus/VPN

all known to cause issue on the Mac.



To trouble shoot further you can:

Takes a bit longer to get to the login screen, does a quick disk repair before it fully boots up, and certain system caches get cleared and rebuilt, including dynamic loader cache, etc.

Login and test. Reboot as normal and test. Caches get rebuilt automatically.


In Safe mode third party system modifications and system accelerations are disabled, it removes malware, etc hampering smooth operation, however a reboot will put it back to normal mode.


This test will tell you if third party interference; extensions etc are not loaded in safe boot mode.
