Are you running any anti - virus programs? Using a VPN?


Try setting up another admin user account in System Preferences/Users & Groups to see if the same problem continues. Please post back on whether or not this worked. Also try the Safe Mode. Please post back on whether or not this worked.

Etrecheck – System Information

I have the same issue. One day starting up Safari this week it just wouldn't. Crashed immediately. Tired safe mode and no go. Tried a new Admin account and safe mode and still no go. AdBlock is the only extension I have. I'm not familiar with a way to shut it off without accessing the program. Would the Etrecheck testing work in my case? Thank you for any help!

You can try Etrecheck, but since it is crashing in another admin account and the Safe Mode, you may need to reinstall the OS. Do a backup, preferable 2 separate ones on 2 drives. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart). Run Disk Utility and select First Aid. Then re-install the OS.


Reinstall from macOS Recovery


OS X Recovery
