After every night, all my documents on iCloud cannot be opened. It only happens with Mac (iOS and web works fine). I need to restart the computer every morning to make it work again.


Any thoughts?

MacBook Air 13", macOS 10.15

I have exactly the same problem. Access permissions on folders are ok. I can copy a file from the iCloud drive into my documents folder , edit there and move it back to the iCloud drive. So it looks like it has something to do with files/folders permissions for applications using the iCloud drive. Could not find a way to add the numbers app to the "Files and Folder" option under security and privacy, just to test if that would help solving the problem. Im using Catalina version of macOS too , all patch versions applied.
