Hello everyone and happy New Year if you celebrate it.


I'm writing to report success! The final fix was completely reformatting the 
hard drive, installing Mohave, and then immediately upgrading to Monterey. I 
had so many things, and thought I had done a recovery, but now that I think of 
it, when I did the recovery, I had done it without reformatting the drive. In 
any case, all is well and my wife is now enjoying this MBP 2019 for her daily 
work. Now, it's onto other customization.


Thanks everyone for your wonderful suggestions.
