Final Cut Pro X Crashing

Hi, so whenever I open up final cut and navigate round an open project or even zoom in on a project (any project not just a particular one) it just crashes. Tried to delete preferences, reinstall the app, create new libraries, EVERYTHING. Tried to use iMovie as a backup for editing and it does the exact same thing on there too. Looked everywhere and tried everything and there's nothing I could find on this, please help!

MacBook Pro 13”, macOS 10.15

If you have a Time Machine backup or an installer from and older system it can be done. Make sure you have all your current files backed up. If possible use a clone like Carbon Copy Cloner. You can then rebuild the OS and migrate your documents from the clone.
