Often I am facing the problem during updates. Every time I have to force close the laptop many times and start. Start in safe boot, start in normal boot etc. Then it is clearing. I never understand what happens.

At one time there was an Etrecheck Application available on the Apple Apps Store.
Due to certain constrains place upon the Developer by APPLE, the developer chose to remove it from the Store and make is available Directly from them.
This specific application is well known, on these Forums, as a Go To for trouble shooting and avoiding all the question / answer and question / answer to finally get the issue pinned down.
It is also known and reported by Reliable Sources that, sometimes APPLE SUPPORT has invoked using this same Developer Distributed Version of Etrecheck application to trouble shot computer issues
Thanks for your reply. I wanted to know that Etrecheck is developed by Apple or third party software.
MacBook Pro updating stuck, installs after multiple force stops.
