Hi,
I'm unable to update my macOS to the latest version. My Macbook's current version is "10.13.6". I can't see any "Software Update" option in the "Updates" tab in "App Store", and there isn't any "Software Update" option available in the "System Preference".
Please let me know how I can resolve this issue. :(
Thanks!
MacBook, macOS 10.13
