How do I run the diagnostic test? Clicking "Servicing Options" just opens up the Apple Support webpage
**Edit: Nevermind, found this. I will try this and report back: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202731
Turn off your M1. Press the power button and hold down until you see the options / cogwheel screen When you see that, press Command +D and that will take you into the diagnostic test.

Sounds to me like a hardware problem that should hopefully/probably be fixed under warranty.
Well, for the first time ever the update FAILED! M1 Mini, having to do a complete reinstall. I have Zero 3rd party apps installed except for Pixelmator. ☹️ All I do on this machine is basic browsing, and touch up photos taken on my iPhone 11 Pro Max
So I got to the diagnostic screen and I click next through the Language selection prompt and the Apple Legal Agreement and then it freezes. It says "Checking your Mac.... About 1 minute remaining" and it stays on that screen and never changes. Tried 3x. Mouse/Cursor stops moving so I assume it's frozen. So now I can't even run the diagnostics.. (I am on 11.4) Arrrgh
They do not really care 💩 about environment, there should be a counter of electricity needed to distribute the updates all over until it arrives to end users.
Only 4 for you? Mine is 12! Pretty ridiculous.. Almost as I'm reinstalling the whole OS. I'm updating from 11.3. I never have these types of huge updates on my Windows rig.
Same with incremental changes on iOS, they're usually huge downloads.
Strange behavior, after the update was finished and I unlocked my iMac there was a message, that OpenOffice could not be started, because it could not be verified.
Probably because OpenOffice ist not signed and I never bothered to start it before. But why did macOS try to start the application in the first place? I never had this before.

It would, unfortunately, not surprise me if Apple fixed a really egregious and embarrassing bug like that without ever acknowledging its existence...
That bug has been affecting several M1 people. I have been told Apple is aware of the problem and working on a fix.
ahh okay. I'm contacting Apple Support and the guy I'm talking to seems to be clueless about the bug. Arrgh
The guy is asking me to reinstall MacOS.
Don't waste your time with that. It won't help.ahh okay. I'm contacting Apple Support and the guy I'm talking to seems to be clueless about the bug. Arrgh

Agreed. All they know is "reinstall macOS".
I am thinking there will only be 5 OSes (for the latest Intel Mac Pro, super beast):
10.x (2019)
11.x (2020)
12.x (2021)
13.x (2022)
14.x (2023)
With the Xcode that works on 15.x, still being able to be ok with 14.x (EOL...)
