Yesterday I have updated my M1 Mac mini from 12.2.1 (or .2) to 12.3.1. I had some work apps opened (vscode, figma, slack, firefox..) so I decided to let the Mac update given that my work day was over. So I start the update, leaving all of my apps opened (as I always do, I mean, I don't close the apps before an update, the OS will close them when it restarts). The updater ask me to reboot and I click reboot now. At this point I leave my desk as I know it can take a bit. I return after some minutes and I see that the Mac has finished updating, cool. I go and try to open Firefox, it starts, but it's stuck, it can't to anything. So I try with vscode, same, crashing. Then I open Slack, crashes. Figma, crashes. I contacted the support, followed the procedure: created new admin user, no luck, safe mode, same errors, reinstall the OS, same errors. During the last contact I had with Apple they said that might be caused by the apps themselves rather than the OS and that I should contact their support but they will open a ticket. Also tried to reinstall all of these apps and there is always the same problem. Tried also to download some more apps which are optimised for M1 which I did not had installed when I updated (downloaded Edge, Brave, vscode insiders, opera) and I always see the same behaviour. The only way of making the apps work is to open them with rosetta. Suggestions? Here's a gif of the problem Edit: this is the output I get from ps -p $(sudo fuser /usr/libexec/rosetta/runtime 2> /dev/null)
