[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1936591, member: 204485"] krs, as for your question about upgrading El Capitan > High Sierra > Monterey I cannot really advise as being somewhat of an "early adopter" I had already upgraded to High Sierra prior to the release of Monterey. It's always been my opinion that sequential upgrading is best but that's only because I always do that. There's no concrete reason for that but I do note that in one article I read it mentions that the Monterey upgrade changes the filing system from HFS+ to APFS [I]if it hasn't already been done. [/I]By[I] [/I]that, they are referring to that change being previously made in High Sierra which I opted for as my MBP had an SSD HD. As for "Grab" I did use it myself and although I found the new screen shot (Command + Shift + 5) vastly superior to the old Command + Shift + 3 or 4 (once I got used to it) I opted for another utility called Yoink which still works on macOS Sonoma. Really all I can say is summed up in the "Conclusion" in the Ars Technica review, "The Mac's best update in years." [/QUOTE]
