Macbook is freaking out in a weird way after cleaning up some files

• Hi,

After using 'DaisyDisk' to clean up cache's and folders. All of a sudden my macbook's finder functions are not working properly. This includes:

Dragging and dropping files within desktop (it lags)

• Not able to save from programs like Adobe illustrator (finder can't find the folders to save on)

• Creating folders on desktop.

• Finder folder not opening.

• All my files in my desktop is everywhere now vs. it was organized and arranged before.

•

Anything relating to what finder does - my macbook is failing at. Things I've tried are:

Restarting

• Deleting the com.apple.finder file in the library folder

• using guest user (here everything works normally!)

How can i fix this and take it back to how it was? Much appreciated.

You can restore from one of your backups prior to installing/using your DaisyDisk'....
