3. After having upgraded your boot files, you may use early loading again by adding these tuneables via System:Settings:Tunables (for Intel CPUs):

Thank you, that was the missing piece.

[1] CPU microcode: updated from 0x24 to 0x3e

Hello,

just to recap, these are the steps in the correct order:

• uninstall os-cpu-microcode-* plugin
• upgrade to 26.7.1
• update your boot loader
• install 26.7.1, os-cpu-microcode-* plugin

My OPNsense version is: 26.1.11_10 and bootloader is:
DFreeBSD/amd64 EFI loader, Revision 3.0

Now the question is: what are the exact steps to update the bootloader?

Thank you
