Mac Photo Editor from Movavi: Create Flawless Visuals: It’s not easy to take high-quality pictures on the first try. Something always seems to go wrong – a random passerby, skin imperfections, or dull colors. To fix these problems, you need Movavi Photo Editor for Mac – a simple program that’s equally good both for beginners.

The first thought was to restart the device, and when I did that, the thing went south. Now, I was not able to open any app even the system app was not working.

Now, I usually like troubleshooting software problem but not today. I had a deadline.

However, in my case, I was not able to delete any folder except “hr”, and even that reappear once I delete it. But it still fixed the problem. I don’t know how, but just after that, I was able to open all the apps again.

Overall, I still not sure, what was the issue (might have to do with some important files getting corrupt) and how this workaround fixed this issue. But thankfully it saved me the entire of tedious work and I hope it works for you as well. Again, all credits go to the user Linc Davis.
