Hi there people! I’m having an issue with my MacOS Sierra installation. I’m having a MacBook Pro 2017. Every time I try to te-install the Os it fails. I hope someone has a solution for me.
Also, don't quote me on this tho, but I'm pretty sure that 2017 MBP's came with High Sierra from the factory, and not Sierra? Macs don't let you run operating systems older than what they came from the factory with. One thing you can do tho is to use this tool: https://github.com/corpnewt/gibMacOS
