MacOS High Sierra 10.13.2 causing Finder crash

Since updating to MacOS High Sierra 10.13.2 (from 10.13.1), I cannot connect to my NAS unit or other computers on the network, and in attempting to do so, Finder crashes and will not relaunch. I cannot find a fix to this problem, and as a consequence, my MacBook Pro (with TouchPad 2016) has become an island. I share files between computers on the network as part of my work process so this is a pretty big issue.

MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2016), iOS 10.3.2

Had the same issue after installing the 10.13.2 update... I should have listen to my intuition not to install it after failing twice! It has been real headache to install the said update which has messed up big time and apparently many users...


Now I've seen some of the answers here below and you could also install macOS High Sierra 10.13.3 beta update, it worked out for me and stabilized the entire OS High Sierra system, but you need to subscribe to the Apple Beta program first! here is how:

Do another backup with Time Machine:

Once done then go to App Store and update the above mentioned update!


Let me know if it was helpful and more importantly, in a later stage if you have resolved this issue, as it seems that there are a high volume of issue with the 10.13.2 update, and it would be important to inform other users of a way to resolve it!


Good luck!
