Today, Avid is confirming that the root cause for a reboot issue encountered by some of our customers has been identified and is unrelated to Avid and its creative tools. Note: An earlier version of this page mentioned OS X 10.9 instead of OS X 10.11.Īs for Avid, they are just happy that it was not their program causing the issue and have shared this statement with BleepingComputer: This will remove the affected version of Google Software Update, then restore the damaged portion of the file system. Mv var var_back # var may not exist, but this is fine Rm -rf /Library/Google/GoogleSoftwareUpdate/GoogleSoftwareUpdate.bundle In the Terminal application, you can run the following commands:Ĭhroot /Volumes/Macintosh\ HD # 'Macintosh HD' is the default To recover a machine that has been affected by this bug, please boot into recovery mode, and then from the Utilities menu open the Terminal application. If you have not taken steps to disable System Integrity Protection and your computer is on OS X 10.11 or later, this issue cannot affect you. We've paused the release while we finalize a new update that addresses the problem. We recently discovered that a Chrome update may have shipped with a bug that damages the file system on macOS machines with System Integrity Protection (SIP) disabled, including machines that do not support SIP.
