Start up your Mac in safe mode

Starting up your Mac in safe mode can help you determine whether issues you’re experiencing are caused by software that loads as your Mac starts up.

Start up a Mac with Apple silicon in safe mode

Does the same issue present when booting into Safe Mode ?

Safe mode may help you resolve or isolate problems that you’re having with your Mac.

When you start up in safe mode, your Mac prevents some software, such as startup items, from loading, and it performs a check of your startup disk. Your Mac may take longer to start up because of the check.

Welcome and do keep us posted on the progress - time permitting.
