Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
Upgraded today to 13.2 Ventura and now I cannot connect from my MBA to my mac-mini on my local network (screen sharing still works).
Sometimes it connects, but then can't open a Folder. (Finder also crashes)
Anyone having this issue, and/or a solution?
Mac mini
More info, mentions that fix is to delete custom icon:

FileShare still not working for me, and I don't have any custom icons that I'm aware of.
I had custom icons on my shared folders. so when I read the instructions & cut the custom icons.
I was able to use the connect to servers.
weird solution.
To me this sounds like a downgrade session to 13.1. Annoying but unavoidable.

Maybe not, do you have any custom icons on your share folders?
Removing the custom icons is the fix.
This does not work in many cases.
There is still an issue. For many - turning sharing off before shutting down, then back ON when restarting works until next reboot.
Downgrading the SMB server to 13.1 works for me flawlessly together with 13.2 clients.
How do you get hands on the 13.1 installer?
I removed the custom icons on all of my drives and I can now connect from my other Mac's. Simple fix but Apple needs to correct this in the next OS update.
Printer sharing doesn’t work either.
