Mission Control on Catalina

Ever since I updated I have not been able to swipe up with three fingers and manage my pages. If I need to switch a page to another window I can't and it's annoying. I've tried everything. Can this be fixed?

Control Right/Left Arrow doesn't work in Mission Control (Catalina) I'm trying to set up Mission Control for multiple desktops, a feature I just discovered and love, but I can't get the shortcut Control + right arrow or left arrow to move between desktops. I've tried lots of things but nothing seems to resolve the issue. At the moment, I've disabled "move left a space" and "move right a space" in keyboard preferences but that has had no impact. The shortcuts "Switch to Desktop 1, 2, 3, etc. are supposed to work with Control +1, 2, 3, etc. are enabled, but they don't work either. I've searched in vain for tutorials on how to enable Control + Right Arrow (Left Arrow). Any suggestions? Thanks!

drag and drop disable when moving an application or a window to mission control hot corner in Monterey In previous versions of macOS I would simply drag a window/application/safari tab straight to the hot corner assigned to mission control and then I could drop it at the desired space in one continuous motion. But now nothing happens so first if the window/app/tab is maximised I have to make it smaller, then activate mission control and then I get to drag it to my desired space. Thankfully for files dragging and dropping straight to mission control hot corner still works in Monterey. Any ideas how to get it to work?

I had this problem too and tried all the suggested steps by Apple and none worked. This finally got it working again on my existing account by running the follow commands in a Terminal:

defaults write com.apple.dock mcx-expose-disabled -bool FALSE
killall Dock

Hope that helps!
