I have M2 Mac Studio with Ventura 13.6 and it keeps asking me if I should "upgrade" to Monterey.

Every so often a bubble appears and says there is an update available and asks if I should "upgrade" to Monterey, but my computer came with Ventura (more recent than Monterey) and I have upgrade the Ventura to 13.6 and it still occasionally pops up.

Give this a try: boot into Safe Mode according to How to use safe mode on your Mac, reboot normally and test to see if the problem persists.


NOTE 1: Safe Mode boot can take up to 3 - 5 minutes as it's doing the following; 

• Verifies your startup disk and attempts to repair directory issues, if needed

• Loads only required kernel extensions (prevents 3rd party kernel/extensions from loading)

• Prevents Startup Items and Login Items from opening automatically

• Disables user-installed fonts 

• Deletes font caches, kernel cache, and other system cache files


NOTE 2: if you have a wireless keyboard with rechargeable batteries connect it with its charging cable before booting into Safe Mode. This makes it act as a wired keyboard as will insure a successful boot into Safe Mode.
