Big Sur Corrupting Files I upgraded to Big Sur last week and since then a vast majority of my files are corrupted and will no longer open. What is going on? This is a disaster. It's costing me a lot of time, money and angst. It includes word files, excel, mindnode, In Design... across the board. All of my files are saved via Dropbox so it is not a hard drive corruption issue. I don't want to have to go back to Dropbox and back date all the files I need. What other options do I have here?
