A1342 software update

Hi there!


Recently got my old A1342 up and running but the Software on it is really old! The last update was the macOS Sierra Version 10.12 (16A323)


Can someone please tell me what the latest software upgrade that is compatible with my mac? I've got some important photos and videos that will be lost if I can't get this sorted.


Thank you!

MacBook

Yours would seem to be the Mid 2010 MacBook 13-inch. The last version of macOS this can support is High Sierra 10.13.6


High Sierra is available from How to download macOS. Use Safari to click on the link.
