iMovie keeps crashing every time I export (after update) - Big Sur 11.4

I completed an iMovie update a few days ago and since then iMovie has been crashing non-stop whenever I try to export a video file.

I tried creating a new Movie library, moving the library, all the advice I found.

Deleted and reupoaded iMovie a couple of times too.

What can I do next?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.4

Hi, PixieBratski,


The crashing on export with iMovie 10.2.4 can be cured by going to System Preferences/Language and Region and changing the region to United States and the language to English. There may be more combinations that work, but we don't have data on those yet.


It seems to be a bug that Apple will need to address.
