Hello.

What is the difference between the two updates available from Apple for MacOS Sierra 10.12.6?

Thanks.

The combo update will update 10.12-10.12.5 to 10.12.6. The plain update will only update 10.12.5 to 10.12.6. The smaller update is made available to save download bandwidth and installation time.

Oh I see.
Awesome.
That might explain why I was having Volume Requirement problems with trying to install the smaller update.
I've just successfully installed the combo update :D
Thanks for posting.
