That's a bit confusing, because 10.6 (10.10.6) would be Yosemite, but Yosemite, never received a .6 update version. It stops at 10.5. So, I'm a little confused at what you are looking at exactly.


Also any Mac running 10.6 Yosemite, would not be able to run 12.6 Monterey so, the installer would not even download.

Unless by 12.6 you actually mean 10.12.6 Sierra.


Where in Apple Menu ➜ About this Mac are you seeing this 10.6? Are you sure it's 10.6? Maybe its 13.6? or something else?


Again, what model / year of Mac do you have?
