Welcome

SystHist is a simple app which gives you easy access to the full history of the system, security, and other updates from Apple which have been installed on your Mac.

It goes beyond the basic information provided in the Installations section of System Information , in giving full details of only Apple software installations and updates.

It is the quickest and simplest way to check the latest silent updates which might have been installed on your Mac. Fuller detail of security updates and current status are available in SilentKnight and LockRattler (also free from the Eclectic Light Company).

It delves deep into the installation records saved in protected parts of macOS to let you know of all Apple installations. The list in Installations can omit some truly silent updates, for example. You can also examine the detailed listing of contents of all installed Apple updates without having to use the command line.

SystHist has a single window, in which there are three views:

- at the ➜ left is a hierarchical listing of system and security updates with section that you can unfold

- in the ➜ middle is a simple text listing of those same updates, with three controls underneath

- at the ➜ right is a table listing all the Apple software and updates which have been installed on your Mac.

The window title displays the current version of macOS which is running; this isn’t necessarily the same which was last installed or update.

When you’re finished, close the window or use the Quit command to close SystHist.

Online information and support is available from the SystHist Support command in the Help menu. This opens the support page in your default browser.
