You do not paint a very big picture...


Did you try from a SafeBoot... if you are trying to do some house cleaning


Try a SafeBoot https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201262

In Safe mode third party system modifications and system accelerations are disabled, it removes malware, etc hampering smooth operation, however a reboot will put it back to normal mode.
