When I attempt to open an app from the dock they do not open and I have to open Activity manager to delete and then they open.
I believe there is something wrong that needs to be fixed and that quick-fix is not the answer.
I have a late-2015 iMac running Monterey version 12.4.

The same thing is happening to me with Monterey 12.4 on a Intel Mac Mini. Reboot will "fix" this problem temporarily but both rebooting and Safe Booting are NOT fixes, just Band-Aids. The problem comes back randomly at another boot up. It is VERY annoying. I have had this problem for over a couple of minor updates and it is still there. I have to go through the whole boot sequence to get to the point where I click on an app to find it is not working. I relaunch the Finder app and it doesn't fix it.
The step I took was to bring the Dock back to its default setting(s) by using the Terminal app and entering the command "killall Dock" at its cursor.
Even though I have had to "rebuild" my Dock, the problem has not recurred.
Thank you! Same problem, and your terminal suggestion helped. Thank you!
