Mac Big Sur and InDesign 2021 Freezing

[njedra0]

I just upgraded to Big Sur (on a Macbook Pro 2019) and now InDesign keeps freezing. I’ve deleted InDesign’s preferences multiple times, uninstalled and reinstalled the latest v2021, tried reverting back to the version before (that which worked fine until I upgraded to Big Sur). Now when I uninstall and reinstall the latest version, InDesign works again HOWEVER when I activate my custom workspace, InDesign goes back to freezing again and again. It’s great that I can get it to stop freezing but it’s not ideal that I have to open all the palettes I use on a regular basis again and again. Anyone have any thoughts as to why activating a custom workspace would cause freezing?

How much RAM and spare disk capacity do you have?

Have you tried unticking use GPU processor in InDesign preferences (I'm not in front of my computer so can't quite remember the terminology)?
