QuickTime player won’t open
Hello,
I’ve been using QuickTime player for a while, but suddenly it stopped working.
When I try to open it, the icon just appears in the dock but the window does not open.
Any help please.

Try rebuilding QuickTime preferences:
Quit QT
From your Finder "Go" menu > "Go to folder" then copy & paste this file path:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.QuickTimePlayerX.plist
Click Go.
Delete the plist file.
Launch QT
Try starting up in Safe Mode and see if it works as expected:

There’s no com.apple.Quic file in the Preferences folder.
Did you enter the file path I gave you, it must include the tide (~)?
Yes. They keep giving me options like com.apple.quicktime.plist
Yes, delete that.
Still nothing. I even emptied the trash and restarted the Mac
