Back up your data, check your applications for compatibility, and if your iMac is a 2012 or newer model, click on Mojave. If not, you can't.

Oh, says "installer is damaged"
and found this, which looks challenging; I guess my wife will stay in High Sierra forever ;)
DOSDude1's installer Patcher links
If you get a corrupted message...
Naw, not damaged, it's just that you have an old copy already in Applications, there are 2 cures...
Disconnect from the Internet & set the Date back to 2014, then you can run the Install MacsOS Mohave App in Applications, so expired Certificates are not expired.
Or... trash the Install MacsOS Mojave.app in Applications, empty trash & restart, then a new copy of a more recent version can be downloaded..
see other questions here too. If your mac can run Mojave you download it here:
