How do you start up a Mac with Apple silicon in macOS Recovery?

 To start up a Mac with Apple silicon in macOS Recovery, you need to access the startup options screen first. This screen lets you choose different startup disks or modes, including macOS Recovery. To get to the startup options screen, you need to shut down your Mac completely, then press and hold the power button until you see “Loading startup options” on the screen. Then, you can click Options and click Continue to enter macOS Recovery1. The other options, pressing and holding the Shift key or Command-R, are not valid ways to start up a Mac with Apple silicon in macOS Recovery. These methods work on Intel-based Macs, but not on Macs with Apple silicon2. References: 1 Use macOS Recovery on a Mac with Apple silicon - Apple Support 2 Intro to macOS Recovery - Apple Support
