After upgrading to 11.6, I have had the following issue on my user account (not on other user accounts) whereby I cannot move any files onto or off of the desktop. I get a message that the file is "moving" or "copying", which never ends. I am talking small files, like documents, PDFs or single photos. I can drag files from email directly into the Finder, but not the Desktop. Also, I cannot rename a document which is currently on the desktop. When I try to do so, I get this very weird error message. Suffice it to say, I am not using the file in any other way.
I have tried figuring out how to address this but am out a loss. Before I spend an hour with Apple Support, I was wondering if anyone else had a suggestion. I have logged out and back into my account and also restarted the machine, to no avail. Nothing on Activity Monitor which looks to be running and failing in the background. iCloud not frozen and I have quit and relaunched the Finder. Any thoughts?
I should add that 11.6 seems to have weirdly resent a bunch of other preferences and settings, but I have been able to put those back in place. This is th lingering issue. Using a fusion drive iMac. TIA.
