nvram: [p]rint all the variables stored in the NVRAM.

nvram

$ nvram -p

try on your machine

The command "nvram -p" is used in macOS and macOS-based systems (such as Mac OS X) to display the current contents of the system's Non-Volatile Random Access Memory (NVRAM) in a readable format.

NVRAM is a small amount of memory that stores certain system settings, configurations, and variables that are persistent even after restarting or powering off the system. These settings include information related to the system's startup, display resolution, sound volume, time zone, and various other system parameters.

By running the "nvram -p" command in the terminal, you can view the current values of the system's NVRAM variables. The output will typically include a list of variable names along with their corresponding values.

It is worth noting that modifying NVRAM variables without proper knowledge and understanding can potentially cause issues with the system's functionality. Therefore, users should exercise caution when attempting to make changes to the NVRAM.
