MacBook Air OS Monterey 

lightroom classic 11.5

 

always worked prior to upgrades 

did upgrades only to see if it would fix the issues but it hasn't. 

I have tried the accessibility check marks as previously mentioned in other threads. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Rebooting. 

Any suggestions so I can continue editing my sessions? 
Time is crucial.

Try logging into another account (you may need to make one), still crashing? 

Try starting up in Safe mode (hold down Shift Key when booting), still crashing? 

You might want to try running a free utility like Onyx: still crashing?

Check the hard drive folder your catalog is in for a lock file that did not get deleted.

If there's a lock file present, Lightroom will not launch at all, and you'll get the message about the catalog being open in another application. So there's something else going on here.
