Hi, The System dialogs are accessed using VO-f1-f1, the Application Chooser. After bringing it up, arrow down to System, then right to open the sub-menu to see the specific alerts. Press return to access the alert. With respect to updates, it depends on whether they are app updates or MacOS updates. In Big Sur and a few earlier MacOS versions, the MacOS updates are now in System Preferences, Software Update. If there are app updates, when in the App Store, press cmd-8 to bring up the updates screen.
