Catalina 10.15.7 (19H2) Freeze

Hi there!

Can someone help me with a bug that I have.

After installing the latest Catalina update (10.15.7) I have been experiencing many freezes, which takes around 20-30 seconds.

I've restarted many times my macbook pro, rested pram and smc, but no luck.

What might be the problem, and how can I fix it??

Thanx!

P.S. Excuse my english, is not my native language!

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15

Sorry but this update is not compatible with my macbook pro

Here are the specs:

MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013)

Processor 2,3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7

Memory 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2 GB Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB

Other strange thing that I've noticed is that, when i highlight a word and right click my macbook pro freezes for 20-30 seconds, doesn't mater where i'm doing it, on browser, on mail, etc.

Usually, Yellow Exclamation Marks for External drives indicates the drives are not Mountable. That is because the drives are corrupted or formatted incorrectly. That can be possibly to fix using Disk Utilities to Check the disk and Repair it.

Now, the Internal drives, also with Exclamation Mark, is a much more serious matter. Try booting in Recovery Mode ( Command + r ) immediately at startup. Choose Utilities and run the same Disk Utilities doing the Repair disk. Run it until no error message appear. Re-boot in normal mode and attempt to Installation again.
