While the macOS Sierra upgrade does
not create a barrier for most Mac users, there are some exceptions where users
may experience a series of issues after the Sierra upgrade.
Even after
reinstalling Sierra, these issues may persist. For these users, the only
viable option is to roll back from Sierra to the previous version, such as OS X
10.11 El Capitan.

users must complete this rollback process. So if you want to do this
process, you can do anything anytime, anywhere.

Time Machine backup of El Capitan. Here's how to back up your Mac before
