where can I found a MacOS Mojave Installer?

I have tried the various links that send me to a page in the MacOS App Store (Get macOS Mojave). The linked page clearly says that is the correct place to get MacOS Mojave. But when I click on the "Open" button, I get the following message:This copy of the Install macOS Mojave application is damaged, and can‘t be used to install macOS.

I am running MacOS 10.13.6 . I believe I understand that Mojave is the last operating system that will accept to run 32 bit Apps. Unfortunately, for the time being, I do not want to lose the ability to run certain software programs, but I do want to be running the latest and most secure operating system which also runs 32bit Apps. Can you please help me install macOS Mojave? Thank you!

Move the installer to trash and try again to download the file.


If it still shows like that, check your internet connection if its stable. Unstable internet can make the installer be corrupted at some point.


Or you can try this solution I found:


1. Go to your applications folder.

2. Find the installer for macOS Mojave.

3. Right click on the installer and click "Show Package Contents".

4. Click on folder named "Contents".

5. Click on the folder named "SharedSupport".

6. Delete the file named "InstallInfo.plist".

7. Enter your administer password to confirm.

8. Now open the installer.


I hope it helps.
