I have tried all the steps described and it still crashes. The initial crash occurred during updating an old organiser file that only had 3 items in it. 
I received an email from adobe someone would ring but no call yet. 
when I have time I could try a re-install but elements works for me and I am reluctant to take this step.

Photoshop CC or Photoshop Elements?  They are NOT the same.

    I am using Photoshop Elements 2021.  I created a new catalog but it still crashes.  The organiser version in the library/applications support/adobe/elements organiser/ I have folders for V11, 18 and 19. The new purchased organiser display window states it is v 19.0 (20200826.m.151582)x64 My MAC is 10.14.6.(18G6020)

    I have followed forum guidance to rename psa.prf to psa_old.prf which I found in the V19 folder.  I have a catalog folder with all the new catalogs I have tried to create.

    The organiser software fails to load every time.  Photoshop elements works fine. I had previously loaded a trial version of PE2020 but then purchaed the 2021 version but do not know what to do it make my purchase work.

    Moving from Photoshop to Photoshop Elements where the concerned experts will see this.
