Sometimes, just to restart the Mac (ie: Click: Apple menu > Restart and then wait while Mac restarts, before logging back in), is all that is needed to restore order.

Else: Keeping your MacOS updated to the latest version ensures the latest bug-fixes, security updates etc, are installed. You can check for updates via Apple menu > System Settings > General > Software Updates ... NB : It is always wise to back-up Mac first if you close to update MacOS.
