Recently (about a week or 2) we have started getting Keychain errors and some apps stopped working properly (sometime they work, then other times not). If you launch them several times, the app will eventually will work to some extent.

As some older posts in Jamf Nation, I have deleted all zero bytes files in the ~Library folder (Keychain Error 1.png) but no chain in the behaviour.

Right now, it is only affecting our training classes but it is creeping into our production area.

Jamf Server 10.16
iMac 10.15.2 Catalina

You seem to have keychain issues, and that results in malfunctioning apps I guess. What is reported by Keychain access? Is the login.keychain unlocked by default for the user?
A gut feeling: do you use policies with packages that use FUT or FEU? these may work different for 10.15 with empty files (due to permission problems?) (I have never liked FUT and FEU a lot , and use them hardly)
Is it for all users? Are it local users, or Directory users?

Don't have many apps with FUT but any new packages, no more. Net new uses only - so related to a newly created packaged. Looking into the package permissions. Thank you for your help
