Need some help or guidance please guys, I cannot save a file after working on my MacBook for a while. If I restart it, I can save a file but after a period of time it just cycles the wheel when trying to save a file on the drive or via cloud. this is also true for searching and attaching files to mail. after a restart it all works fine but after working on the MacBook for a while it won't work.

This with all software. I have also reinstalled the OS but problem persists as well as upgraded to Ventura.

This will tell you if it a universal issue or isolated to your user/admin account. 

Uninstall all third party apps that are Cleaners/Optimizers/VPN/Anti-Virus
