Owners of Mac computers do not need to be reminded how long it usually takes to install a new version of the operating system - at best it's half an hour, and usually more. This process can be accelerated several times, using instead of the App Store commands in the "Terminal".

The simplest combination looks like this:.

-softwareupdate -I - queries the list of available updates.

-softwareupdate -I -a - starts installation.

Advanced users can instead use the command below - it automatically starts the update procedures one by one:.

Sudo softwareupdate -ia; Sudo reboot.

But if you use "Terminal" to install updates on the Mac, we would advise this command:.

Sudo softwareupdate -ia && sudo reboot.

In this case, the computer will reboot only when the first command is executed successfully. If an error occurs, the system immediately issues a warning.
