Save and Save As doesn't work randomly on my Mac 12.0.1

I'm running OS 12.0.1 and computer is 3 years old.


Every dialog where I can save or save as it DOES NOT work.

Example 1: Email attachment in Outlook on Mac, i press save as. Does not work. No dialogue box appear. This is always like this

Example 2: In chrome trying to save an image from Google. right click "save as. Does not work. This is always like this

Example 3. In Mac Mail app saving attachment WORKS using save as. It always work.


Any rights that I need to reset in Outlook and Chrome?


Any ideas?


MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.6

Hello there Erikgoranzon,


Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you have an issue using the options to Save and Save As in Outlook and Chrome, specifically. You've done great steps to isolate the issue. Let's have you follow the steps in this link for How to repair a Mac disk with Disk Utility. This will run First Aid and be sure there are not issues with the permissions causing issues.
