Messages App Crashes on Opening

OSX: 12.0.1

Mac Mini (late 2014)

Messages App ver 14.0


Since the update to OSX12 the app crashes immediately on opening, yet message notifications still appear on the desktop.

Clicking on the notifications opens the app, which immediately crashes.


The problem report is appended below.

Does the same issue present in Safe Boot - Restart and Hold the Shift key until the Apple Logo is presented, then release. It boots slowly - normal.


Once logged in - Test.


To exit Safe Mode - just do a restart.
