MacBook Pro 2021 keeps freezing when performing multiple tasks at the same time

My new MacBook Pro (2 months old) keeps freezing when browsing and typing in a Word document, e.g., but also when having a meeting on Zoom and performing another tasks while doing that. It happens with either browser on my MacBook.

Does anyone else have this problem?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.13

Safari instantly closes tabs opened with cmd+shift+t in tabs group Hi, suddenly Safari started to immediately close tabs I reopened using cmd+shift+t in my tabs groups on my MacBook Air. It still works fine in the main tab group on Safari (the one that cannot be deleted and is always there). I created two tabs groups that are synced between my laptop and iPhone. When I use cmd+shift+t in any of these groups, the recently closed tabs reopens for a second and then disappears instantly without any option to reopen it. Using Cmd+shift+t again reopens the tab closed before, but this new one disappears immediately as well... Any suggestions how to solve this issue?

Some default apps and preference panes not responding 2019 MBP - Ventura 13.0.1 Some apps have begun to freeze up while running and then will not reopen. Music, Messages, Mail. App store will also sit on "loading" spinning indefinitely. Calendar also froze today but a force quit allowed it to restart. Also some preference pane tabs (users & groups, privacy & security, wallet & apple pay) will not load and then turn up "not responding" in the Force Quit menu. Restarting the computer allows the apps to reload but does not allow the preference panes to work. Apps begin to freeze again in less than 24hrs. Safe mode allowed the privacy and security pane to load. When force quitting any of these the report Event is listed as "hang" I have AVG antivirus (basic) and Malwarebytes installed and they find no problems. I installed Malwarebytes after the problem started to show up because I was suspicious of malware. Nothing new was installed recently before the problem started to show up. I'm not sure what to try next.
