Xojo crashes when starting

General
1

I tried to build my app and Xojo crashed. Now it crashes on start. I deleted the caches. But Xojo 2021r2.1 still crashes on start. 2021r3.1 starts fine, but I usually don’t use new Xojo versions without testing.

What else can I delete?

The crash is related to the update checker I would say:

Go to

~/Library/Application Support/Xojo/Xojo/2021r2.1

And delete the contents of that folder.

Note: doing this from memory.

Thanks, that was the problem.

Deleting the Application Support contents did not work for me. What did work was turning off check for updates by editing the preferences (I had it set to weekly).

Specifically on the mac I found the “Update Check Frequency” key in com.xojo.xojo.plist and changed the value to 3.
