Catalina 10.15.1: problems opening files, multiple applications
Since upgrading to Catalina on my Macbook Air (2015) I have had occasional problems opening files in multiple applications, including (so far) Preview, Keynote, MS Word, Scrivener, and others. When trying to open a file, I get the simple message "The file [X] could not be opened", with no further information. There do not seem to be permissions problems with the files themselves.
Rebooting the computer seems to resolve the problem, but then within a couple of days it crops up again. Has anyone had a similar issue, and is there a solution?
Thanks.
MacBook Air 13", OS X 10.11
