However, the bottom line is that THAT Combo was NOT dated today, even though the Get Info on the file said it was changed TODAY. I had created this folder to manually save/manage installers, so I honestly don't remember if this huge file was simply my original Mountain Lion Combo (10.8.0) installer, but I seem to think it's been more than a week since I installed Mountain Lion.

I searched Spotlight and found a file this size named Install Mountain Lion on my external drive in my Software/Apple Software folder with an update date of (last week), but nothing with this name dated today. It wasn't in the /Applications folder, nor in the Downloads folder. After the Combo finished downloading, the installer automatically started, which I cancelled, since I was already running 10.8.1. This time it listed ONLY the Combo (4.37GB) updater, so I downloaded it as well, planning to just save it for some future emergency. I ran the delta update to 10.8.1, restarted the iMac, then ran the App Store/Updates again. When I checked initially for updates, the App Store/Updates identified both the delta update AND the Combo updater. Yes, most new installs are placed in the /Applications folder, and that was the first place I checked. Note: You could do those last two steps in finder, but if you're going to play hacker games, use hacker commands. (The command above copies it to the dekstop as MyApp.pkg) Once the download is complete, and the installer starts up, copy it out of the directory to someplace useful:Ĭp dge2261667518591136895.pkg ~/Desktop/MyApp.pkg This is probably more so that the file name is unique and there are no version / naming conflicts than any nefarious obfuscation.

The last column is the full path to the package it is currently downloading. From terminal, execute the following command: lsof | grep -i pkg
