Update macOS

Check the official update-guide: OpenCore-Post-Install/update

1. Backup
   • Full system backup with Time Machine or similar software
   • Copy current EFI to OpenCore USB-Drive for recovery purpose
2. Download
   • Latest version of OpenCore and replace files in EFI
   • Updates for all installed kexts and replace in EFI
3. Reboot
   • Boot with updated OpenCore version and kexts
   • If the system doesn't boot, use OpenCore USB-Drive to roll back
4. Update
   • Start macOS Update from System Settings -> Software Update
   • With OpenCore the update process should work automatically
   • If Software Update shows Mac version is up to date, download macOS Installer from AppStore and start the update manually

If the system doesn't boot, try to fix the problem or revert to the latest EFI or system-backup.
