mv ~/L*/S*/*finder.savedState Desktop followed by killall FinderĮdit: also tried restoring from several Time Machine backups as far back as November and the symptoms persist.booting into safe mode to reset Finder settings.I put some crashlogs on Dropbox if somebody wants to have a look: CommanderOne, Excel, uTorrent. Just tried installing Commander One as an alternative. Weirdly, Word will run fine as will Transmission.
I have install the latest OS High Sierra 10.13.2 and even previous version, my finder keeps crashing its really annoying because when I try to relaunch the finder by using cmnd + alt/option + esc then relaunch the finder, my desktop folder is all gone and I cant open anything.
I suspect it is related to the more fundamental Finder issue. Finder keep crashing on Mac Os High Sierra. Every single time I try to use BetterTouchTools, TextExpander, Excel or uTorrent they cannot run. I can log into other user accounts, but my files are protected so theyre non-openable in other accounts, the home folder is totally locked down and I cant get at it. It doesnt matter if I reboot, it keeps doing that. Other apps freeze/crash/go Not Responding on start too and never seem to recover. In my main user account, the finder keeps crashing and reloading at about 10 second intervals, over and over. There is no CPU spike or anything like that. Relaunching or Force Quitting doesn't help at all. I get spinning beach ball for 10+ minutes but it usually recovers eventually.
Any time you open a new tab or window it freezes (goes Not Responding) in Activity Monitor and Dock. Well, anything to do with Finder doesn't work. Model Name: MacBook ProĪnnoyingly the same time I went abroad for several months in a region with no Mac stores without taking several flights and unreliable internet access, the system has basically stopped working.
I'm running a 13" retina MacBook Pro and using El Capitan 10.11.6. I've read about a dozen similar questions to this.
