iMessenger on MacMini

I'm wondering if anyone else is having their iMessenger App crash before it really has a chance to open. I have tried multiple problem solving issues as seen below:

-Restarted multiple times

-Sent notices to Apple

-Was on the phone with apple support (Case ID 101817715531) for over an hour and we reinstalled Monterey's new update in Recovery Mode. (12.6), deleted the login items, restarted into safe mode and ran utility check.

-I checked my phone and restarted it. It is sharing my messages, but imessenger won't even open long enough for it to recognize that.

-reinstalled safari

I don't have time to be on support for another hour right now but will call later. I'm reporting this problem here because I believe there is a direct correlation between imessenger not working and the 12.6 update. iMessenger was working just fine before I updated it. I will also be checking my wifi connection.

Thank you for taking a look at this and if others are having problems with this please let Apple know so they can fix the software bug.
