Volume Hash I don't know what to do next. This MBPro running Ventura 13.2 continues to show a message - "Volume Hash Mismatch detected on disk1s1." I've reinstalled the OS several times. I've had hours' long conversation by phone with Apple. And, I've had a computer consultant research. There are no answers from these sources. What does this all mean and what should be done, please?

Volume Hash Mismatch | Ventura 13.4.1 | MacBook Pro 16 inch 2019 After the official release and the update to Ventura, I was occasionally catching a hash mismatch error. I checked the disk with Disk Utility, reboot in safe mode, did all what found in this community and Internet. Finally I created a backup using TimeMachine and reinstall macOS. Everything was fine for a few days (no more than one week) and now I again get `hash mismatch error` notification. I'm totally disappointed. What to do?

Volume Hash Mismatch This message popped up on my MacBook Pro this morning and I’m try to figure out what it means and what caused it. The complete message was… Volume Hash Mismatch Hash mismatch detected on disk1s1 macOS should be reinstalled on this volume Instead of reinstalling the OS I ran First Aid under the Disk Utility and it seems to have either fixed or passed the problem. Do I still need to reinstall the macOS?

I doubt that it is MainStage related. However, you could go to Disk Utility and run an error check (First Aid) and see if that throws up any clues.

If you go to the Command prompt and enter without quotes "diskutil list", you will see which disk name pertains to the disk disk2s5.
