MacBook Mission Control lags and becomes unresponsive

Hi there!

I have a problem. Every so often, when I use Mission Control, my MacBook lags. It's like a half-open window. Often, it's partially open. The current window responds, but I can't click anything else. I can't access settings, and cmd+space doesn't work. This always happens after I enable Mission Control. It happened on both the M1 and M4. I usually have applications open at that time, such as Cursor, Zed, Safari, or GotHub Desktop. I don't know where to look for the problem. To debug the MacBook, I have to hard-shut it down using the power button. I have the latest update 26.2 (this also happened on 26.1)


Need some help.
