Sequoia 15.7.1 not showing in updates, only Tahoe 26.0

On the System Settings > General > Software Update panel, there will be the current Tahoe 26.0.1 entry at the top and further down on that screen there should be an entry for macOS Sequoia v15.7.1. That was my case on several Apple Silicon and my Intel iMac.

Thanks, reading the manpage, I figured out I could use

softwareupdate --fetch-full-installer --full-installer-version 15.7.1

to get the 15.7.1 update.

You are welcome

Good work there " Man page "

Just remember exactly how you arrived at this conclusion

In the Terminal application

Copy and paste the below command then press the Return key

What is the output of this command ?

softwareupdate --list-full-installers

I got:
