Can't update macOS High Sierra

You can't update macOS High Sierra? You are on 10.13.x, but the 10.13.x +1  won't install? It goes through the download and reboot, but when it is done you are still on  same 10.13 ? You can't install kext extensions anymore ? Tried downloading combo updates ? Tried installing direct downloads ? You get in the logs:  Could not create a Preboot Volume for APFS install Or you get:  Could not update Preboot Volume  well... not anymore.. You don't need to reinstall or anything. Check your /Volumes/ folder you probably will see countless preboot volumes there.. This has to be a weird mac os bug. I had 99 folders, probably can't create anymore and hence no more updates for Mac os or no more low level kernel drivers installations... What you need to do is to delete all the folders except the Preboot one. So you should end up with only 1 preboot directory in volumes directory.. Reboot, reinstall and everything s
