File "Can't be Found" prompts after Ventura 13.1 Since updating to Ventura 13.1, at random times, when I double-click on a file to open it, I get a prompt that the file can't be found. If I click OK then double-click the file again, it opens as it should. It happens randomly to files of all types. I have never created aliases to any of these files and they are stored locally on a desktop folder. This has never happened before 13.1. Any ideas? iMac 2020 3.6 GHz 10-Core Intel Core i9 AMD Radeon Pro 5700 XT 16 Gb

Cannot open Sparsebundle file When I try to open My.sparsebundle, I enter my password and I get a pop up that says: “The disk image couldn't be opened Failed to mount filesystems” I don’t know why I’m getting this. I’ve been successfully opening this with the same password for most of this year. I’m certain I’m using the same password. I waited a while, restarted the Mac, enter my password to open this sparsebundle and I still get the same pop up. What is causing this problem?
