Safari freezes after launch showing a pop that vanishes immediately

A popup appears when i launch Safari and disappears before i can click on it. After that, if i click anywhere on Safari it just makes a beep sound. The popup is about importing history and bookmark from Chrome. Options under safari are greyed out including Quit Safari, Preferences, Clear history, etc.


I have tried some troubleshooting like clearing cache by deleting the file and the options mentioned here https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203353
