When I restart my iMac (10.11.3), I see what looks like an update of the firmware (black screen with progress bar). It happens every time. How can I get rid of him?
I've done a few things:
(1) I checked the updates in the App Store. Nothing obvious jumped.
(2) I tried to restart everything again. No luck.
(3) I checked System > Library > CoreServices > Firmware updates. It is empty.
Not sure why it does this. But really want to stop. It makes reboot take an extra + 30 seconds, at least.
