Serious finder window focus bug

There is an extremely serious bug I am having on OS X Sequoia. The focus won't move away from finder making it impossible to use other apps. When I try to click other apps, it just jumps straight back to finder again. To kill finder I had to go into activity monitor (clicking furiously to fight finder who is stealing the focus) to force quit it.
