Hold ⌥ ⌘ as you double click the library you want to open to launch the application. A dialog appears asking you if you want to Delete Preferences. If you don't do this while double-clicking your library, the application will open a default Untitled library.
Please post an EtreCheck report https://etrecheck.com giving the application Full Disk Access in Privacy System Preferences. Copy the report and use the Add Text button to paste the result into reply box.

Thanks SO VERY MUCH, Tom. I tried it again. this time an application window opened up. I clicked FCPX from the window and it launched!!! It contained the Untitled Library. Found the library I was working on, opened it, and there it is!!!
You are a life saver!!!
Thanks a million!!!
Still, would like to know how to find that Untitled Library and get rid of it.
Found the Untitled Library under Movies, FCPX backup and deleted it. It contained two files from last year. How did that happen. I was panic when FCPX would not launch!
Thanks very very much for your great professional help!!!
Did that and deleted Preferences and still would not launch. Where is the Untitled library?
Thanks for coming to help.
You probably don't have one if it's not in Movies.
Can you post the EtreCheck report to see your system configuration?
Actually I like to keep the Untitled library in Movies. Whenever you reset your preferences FCP is going to make a new one if there isn't one there already, so you may as well keep it.
