how do i quit the installer for OS update

OS update notification popped up on my screen so clicked install... now it won’t do anything and has the following error message on the screen:

“macOS could not be installed on your computer

The path /System/Installation/Packages/OSInstall.mpkg appears to be damaged or missing. Quit the installer to restart your computer and try again.”

I am unable to get the computer to do anything. Turning off then on just comes back to this error message.

Thank you for the idea. Unfortunately it didn’t work. I was able to open in safe mode, but when I restarted again it went back to same installation error message.


Is there something I can do in safe mode to reverse the OS update?
