Yeah @eSaF,

Maybe that is the solution for all, but google is our friend, when is not stealing our shirt with the other hand and I found a solution, in a Mac Rumors forum, a command in terminal "sudo dscl . -delete /Users/Guest" and voilá account removed.

That solved all my remaining issues, I hope it stays that way, until the next update and beyond... 

Thanks for all the help guys...

I'm confused. Your screen shows the guest account in a disabled state. Then, via CLI, you deleted the already disabled guest account. So were you looking for a way to remove the guest account that macOS installs by default during the initial setup?

Yeah I know sounds crazy... but no the account was disabled in users and groups, and it still was in initial screen... with that command it's gone... 

The users and groups is as shown below ... 

 

PS: I didn't know that macOS installs an guest account by default during the initial setup, but if it was that, the users and groups never indicated it...

Yes but I've got 4 computers to update, one of which is an unsupported iMac 27" 2012, so easier to download once.

 

Were you offered 20A5364e or 20A5364i ?

Beta 5 download via Developer Beta Access in Catalina 10.15.6 then create installation USB drive and install beta 5.

 

No, there were no suggestions to choose from.

yes I have 11.3 link ... beta 6

 

Anddd is done, updated to BS beta 6...

But was weird one more time, the first update was only 3.5 GB after downloading it, it gave an error, after that appeared an update with 11.3 GB, after download appeared an supplemental update that didn't download nothing, after that reboot and installation, that went smooth and fast ...
