Resolved I can not read or update MRT.app

[camelia]

Hello,

macOS Catalina 10.15.6 (19G73)

I am trying to know the MRT version running this command in terminal:

defaults read /System/Library/CoreServices/MRT.app/Contents/version CFBundleShortVersionString

But the result is

2020-08-07 04:18:05.887 defaults[525:5499]
The domain/default pair of (/System/Library/CoreServices/MRT.app/Contents/version, CFBundleShortVersionString) does not exist

The above command works in macOS Hight Sierra and Mojave, what in Catalina changed and how do I know the MRT Version?

Thanks
Camelia

Try this

defaults read /Library/Apple/System/Library/CoreServices/MRT.app/Contents/version CFBundleShortVersionString

Or you can take a look at

 > About This Mac > System Report > Software > Installations

it’s an easier way.

You're kind of double posting about the same problem.

Go look at your other post and there is a Terminal solution to update XProtect & MRT.

To know the version, go to System Report > Installations and look for MRT & XProtect there, you can see the current version that is installed.

Thank you very much!
