The user is obviously aware of the Limitation that a 128 GB SSD Drive places on the computer.


Otherwise, they would not have installed and used CleanMyMac X to try and delete files from the computer


Thereby, seemingly avoided running out of Empty Disk Space


Sorry but that was not so wise


Any of the below should be removed as per Developers Instructions 


Disk Cleaner 


This will include CleanMyMac , aka “ BrickMyMac


Specific to CleanMyMac aka “ BrickMyMac “


To put the CleanMyMac in context and the damages it may have or has already done.


This application can or will Muck Up your User Account ( Home Folder ) of this machine.


It does not touch the Operating System itself unless you consider your User Account ( Home Folder ) as part of the Operating System


Then in that specific context - it has Mucked Up the Operating  System 


The steps in #1 below is predicated on the Offending  Application has been Removed as per the Developers Specific Instruction 


# 1 Some Contributors suggest restarting in Recovery Mode and choosing to Reinstall the Operating System over the existing installation. 


This may or may not replace elements of the  Home Folder ( User Account )  and replace any corrupted or removed elements and make things right.


#2 - Then there are Other Contributors ( like myself ) would suggest


For Intel computer >> Use Disk Utility to erase an Intel-based Mac followed by How to reinstall macOS


Thereafter to start from scratch and install all Required Applications directly from the Apple Apps Store or Directly from the Developer.


If going this route - I suggest Not using Startup Assist to migrate things back as this will probably Re-Introduce the existing  issue at the time TM Backup was made
