Problem: Apps are crashing
Description: 
My Final Cut Pro keeps crashing. I am editing a couples wedding film u
sing a Samsung SSD T7 external hard drive and all of a sudden it crash
ed tonight. I can re-open the library but I can't re-open the project.
 Moments before this happened I deleted some render files ( I've don't
 this countless times and nothing has ever gone wrong). A few minutes 
later I then got a message saying that the library was damaged. I've c
hecked that Final Cut Pro is running on the latest version which it is
. I have also deleted my preferences and it still isn't working.
