I had a lengthy update process to go from 10.13.1 to 10.13.2, which made me start to evaluate my configuration a little bit. I've looked, but didn't know where to find answers to the below:
- Do I need to have AppleALC AND CodecCommander, or is AppleALC redundant? For what it's worth, CodecCommander was throwing a fit until I updated it (halting boot after upgrading to 10.13.2).
- Does CodecCommander need to be in /System/Library/Extensions, or can I drop it into /EFI/EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other like the other kexts? I'm not sure what the best practice is, or if I have to have it in /S/L/E.
Finally, when checking for updates on the App Store, I get this message:
Any advice you all can offer is greatly appreciated - I'd like to make sure I don't have redundancies & that I've got everything in the "preferred" directory to help make future upgrade processes simpler.

If I disable the "Install macOS updates" checkbox in System Preferences, this message doesn't appear. I can update all of my installed programs, but the system updates aren't coming through on the App Store. I am using SmUUID, and can use Messages & FaceTime without issue.
