Please Help! Unusable Finder after Updating from Catalina to Big Sur and Monterey. 4 very Painful Weeks
MacPro (Late 2013), Tin Can.
Music Production Computer, working perfectly up to Catalina, but I was forced to do one more Upgrade, so I Tried Big Sur first. Update went smooth, but after attempting to restore Time Machine Backup, nightmare started. The Finder became totally heavy and slow, everything that is related to moving Files/Folders, Opening menus, selecting items, basically everything. I tried moving Up one more, to Monterey, Same problem, but worse. I Erased the HD, and reinstalled Big Sure, restored the Backup, again, and again, and again. No improvement.
I have tried to find the conflicting software, but no luck. I already Erased/Reinstalled/Restored so many times, i'm sick of it. Zero Improvement.
I Am trying Etrecheck, but the possible solutions are so many, that I don't know where to start. I'm trying it, though. I don't know how to find Software Conflicts, really. Any help will be immensely appreciated. I'm stuck

And yes, the big problem: Hundreds of Third party Plugins. I'm trying to delete everything I haven't used in a long time or never.
Pretty Frustrating
