I was alerted by apple? that my computer has a problem i.e. eficheck.dump. I believe that means something to do with my firmware.

I ran TTP which includes EFI System Partition (passed) If that doesn't solve the issue, would a re-install of Mojave rectify it?

I haven't noticed anything untoward since learning about this alert. Any advice anyone?

Because I have a suspicious nature, I'll ask how you got this alert. Do you know if it actually came from Apple?

My memory isn't what it used to be but I think it gave me the option of sending a report to apple. That would suggest it being legit.

However, I'm with you about being wary.

Very suspicious. Tell me there wasn't a link to click in the message?

jon, I had to fix Dw by doing an OS re-install and then enabling SIP but terminal says:

abcs-MacBook-Pro:~ abc$ csrutil enable
csrutil: failed to modify system integrity configuration. This tool needs to be executed from the Recovery OS.
abcs-MacBook-Pro:~ abc$

How do I do that? Anybody!

I just went back into recovery and enabled SIP... now OK

You need to boot into Recovery - that's command-R after you hear the startup chime - and once there, search your menu bar for Utilities/Terminal and run the same command. (I think you can do it with just a restart, not a shutdown/restart.)

Once back in your boot volume, run to confirm that you got it right.

It takes some time to boot into Recovery, so be patient.

In situations such as this, you ought to post a screenshot so you don't leave yourself and everyone else guessing.

I should have took a screen shot. However, I did sort things out in recovery and now hopefully, everything is fine. There was also a problem with DW, it wouldn't open up but an email from Marc gave me the

instructions to resolve that problem and now, DW will rebuild directory...something new.
