Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
So I've been using an m1 Macbook Air for the past year and there is one issue that I've tried fixing over and over again but couldn't find the right fix for. After a fresh installation, everything seems to open almost instantly but about a month down the line and things starts taking forever to open. I've confirmed all apps running the native apple silicon version and I'm on the latest version of macos available.
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.4
I've tried reinstalling macos but nothing got fixed. Do you think factory resetting the macbook will fix the issue?
Not really. Please review my suggestions regarding how to properly apply Activity Monitor to your troubleshooting efforts.
I'm really a noob when it comes to computers. Can you please kindly tell me what exactly should I look for in the cpu tab of activity monitor. Much thanks for your time.
I looked into the cpu tab of activity monitor. Kernel task, windows server and sysmond appeared to take the most amount of cpu power(about 17 % )
And that happens even when the Mac is performing poorly?
But this affects all the apps and not all apps can be uninstalled.
Apps slow to open on m1 mac
