Messages app not opening
After the latest Big Sur install (v 11.2.3 20D91) my messages app on my MBP M1 machine does not open. It bounces and after a few seconds the application is not responding and I have to force quit. The app never opens at all ("Messages" never appears next to the ).
FaceTime is doing almost the same as well - this application does opens, but the beachball comes up and it goes to not responding. When I receive a call my computer keeps ringing even after I pick it up on my cell phone. Every-time. Very annoying.
Restarted the computer numerous times, force quit the activity numerous times. Have not done a macOS reinstall yet.
Any others having this issue? Any fixes?
