Hi, Do the following:
1. Restart your Mac. 2. Hold down the cmd and r keys to make sure it starts in Recovery Mode. 3. At the MacOS Utilities window, select Disk Utility then press Continue. 4. In Disk Utility, in the Disk Selection table, select the first Macintosh HD item. 5. Stop interacting with the table and interact with the ToolBar. 6. Press the Erase button in the ToolBar. 7. Leave everything alone in this dialog and simply press the Erase button, the last button in the dialog. 8. Wait a bit and when the "Done" button is active, press it. This will take you back to the MacOS Utilities window. 9. In the table, select Re-Install Mac OS then press Continue. 10 Follow the prompts, agreeing to all things that require agreement. 11. Select Macintosh HD as your destination then press Continue. It will download the latest version of Catalina from Apple and go through the installation process for you. After it restarts itself, follow the prompts to set it up as your own once again. Later...

I think this is what is causing some of my weird issues. So I am going to do another clean install this weekend. Hopefully this time I will get it right. I wonder if I should erase everything including the macOS system volume? This way there is nothing on the computers hard drive at all.
