Anyone know what this folder is? com.apple.ctcategories.service I took a screenshot. Can I fix it? BTW its in the Users Library Cache folder.

bogdanw, in my case it's a 10MB file. You're sure it's OK to just delete it? Why is it there in my caches as well as golfnut1982's? If this is common, there must be an explanation. Why does it have a 🚫 on it, as if to say "Don't delete me"?

golfnut1982, did you delete it, and what happened?

:apple: Macbook Pro 13" 2016 2 USB C ports, Intel, 8GB Ram, 256GB Flash, MacOS 12.2 Monterey, wish I hadn't.

Everything in ~/Library/Caches/ can be deleted. They are non-essential, temporary files that will be recreated, if really needed, when the apps that created them are started again.
