InDesign freeze/crash on launch on macOS Big Sur

[Amebix]

My InDesign app started to crash on launch a week before I upgrade my MacOs to Big Sur. I was hoping this problem to be fixed after the update but it still crashes the same way. I reinstall the app a few times but no results at all.

Can someone help, please?

Please tell us (exactly) what InDesign version you're using. 

I would try restoring InDesign preferences:

Adobe InDesign: Rebuilding Preferences and Cache Files ...www.rockymountaintraining.com › Adobe InDe...

[Amebix]

I'm using the latest version (2021 / 16.0).

That's good. I've been using it since it was in beta.

I'd try restoring your preferences.

Nothing... I restore the preferences, reinstall again... same. But it workes without a problem on my Macbook Pro, so there is something on this Mac, I can't find a solution to fix it. Is there something else I can try so I can fix this and start work normally?

I am having the same issue with Big Sur - InDesign unexpectedly quits. I've resinstalled twice and replaced preferences
