Hello,
Could it be that this user's account was deleted in the past and re-created?
Faced something similar to this the old user ID was present on the site, and I had to remove it manually
I realized after using the Help Wizard in the admin panel, it will try to diagnose and inform what is happening, so I would give it a try
So you can go to Support -> Help & Support and use these
"Unable to access Teams Files"
and
"Unable to access files shared in Teams chat"
and fill the information and wait for results

Hello there Andres,
The user hasn't been removed an recreated, this issue appeared 4days ago without any changes to the site, team or user permissions.
I tried your suggestion it didn't find any issues:What's more frustrating is that he can do everything to the file such as copy, move, remove and..... except editing.

This is what I see there:
He got full control (Given through the site owners) , and I see there beside limited access (not sure why or how or what even that means since he has full control)
and on the file itself these are the permissions:
