cannot run Bridge v 12.0.3.270 on an Apple Mac Pro

I cannot run Bridge v 12.0.3.270 on an Apple Mac Pro running Monterey OSX v12.6.  Once Open, I get the spinning wheel.  It had been working OK until recently.  I have Quit & Restarted, resetting Preferences and clearing Cache, four times.  No luck.  I have Uninstalled Bridge and downloaded & installed a fresh version of Bridge three times.  No luck.  I tried installing the previous version of Bridge (12.0.2.252).  No luck. I have run Disk Utility several times on my boot drive and even, using Apple Recovery Mode, installed a fresh copy of the OSX.  No luck. I am a working professional photographer and simply cannot function without a working version of Bridge. I have wasted hours on this.  Any suggestions sure would be welcome. Thanks.  Mark W.

Does this happen in Safe Mode? What about with external drives disconnected? Have you given Bridge permissions for Full Disk Access?

Thanks for the response. Last night I finally was able to get Bridge to run again. Un-install, reboot, ran Disk Utility, reboot, re-install Bridge and it finally worked.
