applications not responding after shutdown / restart
After every shutdown / restart, all applications fail to open when clicked on. This includes mail, safari, photos etc and I get the message "application not responding". After "force quit" they eventually open. Problem is even worse with pages, numbers, word & excel where it takes ages to get the app & then the selected doc to open. Very frustrating. Am running macOS Big Sur 11.5.2. Can anyone help please?
