Critical Updates for Mac1.60
Notification of background updates.
What is Critical Updates for Mac
Critical Updates keeps you informed of when a background update of the listed components occurs. These are controlled by the command-line softwareupdate tool and by App Store preference settings in System Preferences.
Critical Updates refreshes the Components table on launch, and about once every 60 minutes, if left running; it polls the App Store for security updates on launch, and about once every 10 seconds while running. Critical Updates has a very low energy and resource footprint, and can be left running with virtually no impact on system resources.
Features
- Newly-updated components are colored red in the table
- An alert appears in the window when a security update needs to be installed manually
- Click the yellow warning triangle next to the alert message text to open the App Store
- Click the ‘x’ button to hide the alert message
- Double-click any component’s name to reveal it in the Finder
- Click the App Store icon in the window to immediately open the App Store preference settings

RIP…to a great application!
A convenient way to check for Apple security updates both for the average and advanced user (i.e. terminal command, forcing background updates)!
Any lite weight replacements (e.g. DetectX)?

Hey developer; if you wrote your dates as month/day/year, instead of day/month/year, they would sort properly when you sort by date! This is sloppy looking.
Otherwise good app. :)
