After an upgrade to MacOS Ventura error code - 36 came up when I tried to move files and folders from the desktop to the trash AND TextEdit could not open the files. Tried many methods but nothing. Any help thanks in advance.
Error -36 is an I/O Error which usually indicates a failing drive....a hardware issue. You can try checking the health of the drive by running DriveDx (free trial period) and posting the complete text report here using the "Additional Text" icon which looks like a piece of paper on the forum editing toolbar.

I've managed to fix it by changing the home folder location I CANNOT believe how my Mcpro 2019 runs so smoothly with Ventura and how Sonoma made it run SO SLOWLY with a kernel panic and overheating. Could my Imac pro 2017 handle Sonoma and Sequoia? Thanks in advance. Recommend DO NOT update without a Time machine Backup.

FYI, be careful with that modification. Sometimes you may find some odd issues at the most inconvenient time. For one, I believe I recall some people having issues restoring from a TM backup with this configuration. Plus sometimes a simple macOS update patch has been known to cause boot issues where it reconfigured the system to recreate an empty user account on the macOS boot drive (this happened multiple times with macOS 12.x Monterey)......it was not as easy to reconfigure and some users were left with unusable systems for several months because they could not fix their system. Eventually the macOS updates stopped breaking that custom setup.
Even though macOS allows you to make this custom configuration, it does not follow that it is well supported. From my own personal experience, macOS does not like deviating too far from system defaults. Keep in mind that macOS is becoming more & more like iOS

Sonoma may not be the problem. It seems like you have a hardware issue which is probably the main cause of the performance issues. It is also possible software issues could be playing a part.

Yes, they are compatible with an iMac Pro 2017.

That is always good advice. In fact people should always have frequent and regular backups of their computer and all external media (including the cloud) which contains important & unique data. There are a lot more new ways to lose access to the data on the internal SSD of the recent Macs due to all the hardware, software, and security changes.
thanks for your reply .macOS runs so smoothly now that there is nothing to blame other than Sonoma. The only problem was that it took me 7 days to find that solution and I had to transfer some files from the old user/library to the new user/library. I wish someone told me this solution the first time.
