Native Mac applications not responding
I have a MacBook Pro 13-inch, 2017 model which has been updated to the latest 11.5.2 OS. Applications such as Safari (14.1.2) and App store do not open. App store screen is white whereas on safari and typing any URL the screen is stuck on loading. The apple software update is also stuck on checking for updates. What can I do to resolve this issue? other applications like chrome and slack work fine.
