Carbon Copy Cloner version 6.0.4 Update Release Notes
(Free 30 day trial available at https://bombich.com/download.)
Info from the Oct. 20, 2021 Carbon Copy Cloner v6.0.4 release notes:
    This version of CCC adds official support for macOS 12 Monterey.
    This update includes a handful of changes applicable to Catalina and Big Sur users too:

  • The expansion state of the last task group in the sidebar is now properly retained across launches.

  • The order of tasks within a task group as shown in the sidebar now tracks the run order defined in the "Upcoming Group and Task Events" table when the sidebar is configured for manual sort ordering. Likewise, tasks within a group cannot be sorted manually in the sidebar when the sidebar is configured for manual sorting. Order the tasks within the "Upcoming Group and Task Events" table to set that custom order.

  • Improved the handling of some failure cases when copying the Catalina System volume, e.g. when the destination volume drops offline, or when the destination Data volume can't be unmounted.

  • Fixed an issue in which CCC would fail to mount the destination Data volume in cases where the destination System volume had been removed.

  • CCC will no longer remove the System volume from an encrypted destination volume after an OS upgrade. We can't update that System volume, so it becomes essentially useless, but removing it exposes a bug in Disk Utility in which it's unable to unlock the volume. Also fixed an issue in which CCC was failing to unlock those orphaned Data volumes.

  • Fixed a couple issues that were causing exceptions.
