macOS 26 preview does not allow highlighting on much of text

No solved in 26.3,

Additionally I had to solve the selection itslelf not working since first time I installed Tahoe, I found the solution only some weeks ago:

1. Recreate the Missing Caches Folder

Since the system cannot find the "Caches" folder, you must manually ensure the path exists:

1. Open Finder.
2. In the top menu, select Go > Go to Folder....
3. Type ~/Library/ and press Enter.
4. Look for a folder named Caches.

• • If it's missing: Create a new folder (Shift+Command+N) and name it exactly Caches.
  • If it's an alias (it has a small arrow icon): Delete it and create a real folder named Caches instead. 

2. Reset the Finder and Sidebar

Sometimes the Finder sidebar points to a corrupted "broken link" for system folders. 

1. Right-click any folder in your Finder Sidebar that is giving you this error and select Remove from Sidebar.
2. Relaunch Finder: Hold the Option key, right-click the Finder icon in your Dock, and select Relaunch.
3. Try to navigate back to ~/Library/Caches to see if the error is gone. 

3. Restart

If the mediaanalysisd process is still not appearing in Activity Monitor:

1. Shut down your M1 Mac.
2. Press and hold the Power button until you see "Loading startup options".
3. Select your disk, then hold the Shift key and click Continue in Safe Mode.
4. While in Safe Mode, try selecting text in an image. Then, restart normally. Safe Mode clears and rebuilds system caches automatically.
