Issues with Mac Mini upgrade to Ventura 13.5.1...

To avoid the question / answer and question answer scenario

Suggest the User start with Points 1 to 4 and then Test

Still having issues, move onto Steps 5 and 6 and Test Again

Still no resolve - move onto Step 7 and follow instructions therein 

1 - Restart in Safe Mode. This will perform a Disk Repair, clear cache files and only load Apple Software, extensions and fonts. The boot up will be slow and can take some time - Normal.

2 - Safe Mode will also eliminate Third Party Software, extensions and drivers from loading. It will only load the Minimum amount of Core Apple Processes to allow the the computer to function at a reduced Level of Performance 

3 - Does the issue present in this mode ?

4 - Sometimes a Safe Boot followed by a Normal Boot will just put things right.

5 - If not - there could be something in the main User Account playing up. To further isolate this - Set up users, guests, and groups on Mac. Then log out of the Main User account and log into the dummy account and test again if the issue persists.

6 - If the issue is present in the dummy account - then, this appears to be a System Wide issue on the computer.

7 - If still having issues please post back for possible additional trouble shooting suggestion

Yes, it is off. I didn't change anything there.

Also check everything related to Focus in the settings shown below

Has anyone else been using your Mac that may have altered any accessibility settings? (They can be found by going to System Settings-->Accessibility)

Selecting keys result in wrong feedback. Text will enlarge on screen with blue border.

Go to your Accessibility settings and make sure that Full Keyboard Access is OFF.
