◦If you're trying to boot from your Mac's internal drive, you need to shut down the 
computer, and then boot it up while holding down Command + R until the globe or 
Apple logo appears. That will put your Mac into recovery mode, and then you can 
change the startup disk by selecting the option from the Apple menu.
◦Recovery mode is useful when your Mac won't start normally because the startup 
disk is corrupted or corrupted. That could be due to corrupt files or minor power 
surges that you're not aware of, but it fixes the problem without you having to go to 
extreme lengths, like reinstalling your macOS.
◦If the Mac folder with a question mark appears because your drive has failed, the 
only thing you can do is replace the drive and use the time capsule or other backup 
device you've been using to recover your data to the new drive .
