You have Big Sur now, but you want Big Sur???


Which exact Mac & yea do you have?


Are you running any VPN, Anti-Virus, or Cleaning apps?


Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at startup), does the problem occur in Safe Mode? Could take 10 minutes or more.


Safe mode attempts to repair Disks & clears lots of caches & loads safe Drivers, & prevents loading of 3rd party extensions, so if Safe Mode works try again in regular boot.
