Hi everyone, my machine running Big Sur 11.6.1 keeps hanging on simple tasks like opening files in preview, quick time, or just finder. The rest of the apps like Spotify or Safari runs fine, but seems like anything that relates to accessing Finder hangs. Even relaunching Finder takes about 10-20 secs to respond. My machine has been running fine for a month or so now since upgrading to 11.6.1(Previously on Big Sur 11.2.1 on identical hardware with 5700XT), and this issue seems to just started, restarting doesn't fix it either. Was wondering if anyone had this experience or any idea what's going on. Thanks in advanced.
