So with me this did not go away, certainly with the already double clicked files then it did. But as soon as they are moved again or renamed it came back.
Even on a new vanilla system, or save boot with no extra stuff installed: it will happen.
I have reproduced it with a support staff long and detailed. it occurs 100% always if you try this example:
- create three screenshots.
- mark these 3 pictures, right mouse button, new folder with selection
- then rename the newly created folder, to "project X" or "images" or what ever
- Go into the folder on your desktop and try to open the files.
You will get this pop up with can't be found for every single file at the first time I you double click.
I have recorded this with support and Apple Capture Data app now and hopefully will get information soon what the problem is.
Anyway, I also went to an Apple Store and was able to reproduce it there on every computer with 13.2.1 that I could use (Macbook pro, iMac, Mac Studio). Even the employee looks surprised.
It seems to be somehow only people who need the Macs for surfing or watching videos and no longer for real work with a lot of files and data organization :-P
Anyway, the popup annoys me dozens of times a day and I seriously wonder why no one internally at Apple notices.
Do they not work with files and Folders and move them sometimes, or rename them sometimes?
Anyway, I'm glad that it also affects all M1/M2 machines I could test and not just Intel old-timers like me. Hope this gets fixed soon. Last time I found a Bug in Quicklook with the huge red areas poping up, if you use an AMD card, and it took apple 1,5 years to correct it(Big Sur and Monterey affected, and often to see if you turn off transparency in accessibility settings). really hoping this is not taking so long.
