I am having a problem with my iMac 2019 running sequoia. Frequently when I am moving folders or even opening some I get the error code -8062. I’ve found some sources that say I should run terminal and enter dot_clean /Volumes/YourDriveName. Elsewhere it suggests I should include the particular folder or file name. I have no idea how things got so messed up but it is a pretty regular offender. I’d appreciate any help you can provide.
