Matlab 2023b crash when I close a plot

On macbook pro M1 whit the new MacOS Sonoma, Matlab 2023b crashes (or rather hangs/becomes unresponsive) everytime I close a figure manually, i.e. click the red cross on the figure window. Close all works fine though.

I tried uninstalling it and installing it again but it still gives me the same problem, only when I close the figures
There have been posts about problems with MATLAB R2023b in MacOS Sonoma. I suggest you go through the forum to find similar posts.
Also, contact TMW technical support to report this behaviour - Contact Support
Cumbersome, and MW should still fix this issue, but I can confirm that focussing on a new window before closing a plot does work. If you plot a bunch of figures after running a script, like me, you may have to do this multiple times to close plots manually. Thanks for reminding me that "close all" exists and works fine! lol. For the time being, I will edit my script to automatically save my figures and use "close all" to prevent any crashing.
Please fix this issue soon MW! Thank you
This thread is the more complete discussion of this issue.
MacOS update 14.3.1 resolved this issue for many folks.

Known issue (among some others with Sonoma). See this thread.
I have had success closing figures "manually" if I put the focus on a different window first, before closing.

This is the only thing that works for me.
In the thread I mentioned, it has been noted that the most recent Sonoma update seems to have resolved this bug.

I Tried using command+W and it seems to fix the problem
One silly technique that I applied on "MacOS_M1_13"_sonoma14.2
% Specify the folder to save all the figures in your desired format(s) and use later
saveFolder = '/Users/practice/mode folder/figures';
% Create the folder if it doesn't exist
if ~exist(saveFolder, 'dir')
mkdir(saveFolder);
end
% Save all open figures in the specified formats
figHandles = findobj('Type', 'figure');
for i = 1:numel(figHandles)
% Save as JPG
saveas(figHandles(i), fullfile(saveFolder, ['figure_', num2str(i), '.jpg']));
% Save as FIG
saveas(figHandles(i), fullfile(saveFolder, ['figure_', num2str(i), '.fig']));
% Save as PNG
saveas(figHandles(i), fullfile(saveFolder, ['figure_', num2str(i), '.png']));
end
close all %if you are able to generate figs. already

This is surely just plain ridiculous. Mathworks has known of this problem for years. Actually, it is pretty serious, with all work arounds causing many additional problems. For example, you can't, in my experience use 'close all' in a program, which I do use, without triggering the spinning circle of death.
Apparently it is a Java problem, but Matlab requires an obsolete Java to run. They don't seem concerned that they market a very expensive professional program which repeatedly crashes. If it was a 737, perhaps they would fix it? Oh, I forgot, Boeing did the same exact thing!
Is this a US problem with executives? You know, it costs money to fix things, so lets not bother, it might impact my bonus?
