What is: com.apple.appkit.xpc.openAndSavePanelService

Ever since upgrading to Ventura this pops up a window asking where it is. I have no idea what it is for or where it is.


Apparently this has been around for a long time in an earlier thread. But the solution then was to quit either Pages or Numbers to stop the process. I don't use either of those.


Can anyone provide an answer to tell me where to look?

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.12

I see it here:

/System/Library/Frameworks/AppKit.framework/Versions/C/XPCServices/


it sounds like a bug to me your popup...



you can try a —SafeBoot How to use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support will sort many anomalies



you can file a bug report /submit your Apple Feedback here: Product Feedback - Apple

there is an old thread here among others: close all apps and shut down and restart was one solution(?)
