Whenever I try to delete a file, I am met with a loading screen and it seems that my files are unable to be deleted
I have a MacBook Air. I just updated to MacOS Sonoma from Monterey. I am not sure I'm remembering right, but I'm pretty sure that this issue only started after I updated the OS.
Whenever I try and delete a file, or try and drag it into the trash, I am met with a loading screen with this response:
Moving "file_name" to "Bin"
Items to delete: 1
Then it seems that this loading screen goes on indefinitely and none of my files ever get deleted.
Also, I believe that this problem seems to only be with certain files; the ones that cannot be deleted also cannot be opened and viewed. The problematic files also have the word "Error" under them:
Thank you to anyone who helps! This isn't necessarily a pressing issue, but I want to be able to delete things!
