Setup[edit | edit source]

Although setup in general hasn't received major uplifts, the language selection has received a huge uplift - coming up as a box with language options rather than a part of the setup application itself, and excluding the macOS toolbar. The toolbar has also received a quite large uplift - the disk utility was separated from Installer and is now in a separate tab called Utilities. Inside Utilites is a bunch of other utilites, including the following:

  • Startup Disk
  • Reset Password
  • Terminal
  • System Profiler
  • Network Utility

The disk utility has also received minor uplifts, including an information button.

The Out-of-box experience has received a few uplifts, including an option for hearing instructions and the option to transfer files from a previous Mac.
