Software Update cannot see MacOS 27. The wheel spins as though there's a hamster stuck in my HDD.

MacBook Air M2 cannot see past MacOS 26.6.

I have done all the usual stuff: Safe Boot, shut down for more than a few minutes, deleted plist, shut down Little Snitch, run several commands in Terminal even though I don't know what I'm doing there, and muttered a few spells from Harry Potter.

Nothing. The wheel spins merrily on, although, when left overnight, it tells me that I am, indeed, up to date with 26 which is not correct (?).

Terminal seems to think that there's another activity under way, but I can't see anything in that regard.

I'm seriously considering a reinstall of MacOS, but that's always scary and disrupting.

What do the clever gentlemen think?

Thanks in anticipation.
