Final Cut Pro Crashing When Replacing Images In Timeline

I edit a public access show. The executive producer will come back and ask me to replace certain photos in my timeline. 8 our of 10 times when I try to replace a photo with a different one and I select "replace and retime to fit" Final Cut will crash. It drives me NUTS! It would make my job so much easier if that function worked. I only do this with static photos that are either jpg's or png's. It only sometimes works but 8 out of 10 times it will crash. I am working all on the same hard drive (SanDisk 4TB Extreme Portable SSD). I literally have no problems at all unless I try to do this replace and retime to fit function. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Hardware details below. I'll comment with my crash log.

The report is incomplete, for some reason, but from what we can see, this stands out:


[Loaded] com.google.GoogleUpdater.wake.plist (Google LLC - installed 2024-10-15)

Command: ~/Library/Application Support/Google/GoogleUpdater/Current/GoogleUpdater.app/Contents/MacOS/GoogleUpdater --wake-all --enable-logging



It is well known around here that the background tasks that google installs, ostensibly to keep its software up to date, hog system video resources (for whatever unknown reason) and cause FCP and other video applications to fail.



Also: there appears to be remnants of "antivirus one", which may have been uninstalled but left pieces behind. That's not good.

I wasn't even asked about an EtreCheck. I uploaded my crash log on my own accord. My EtraCheck is below.


Sorry, I confused this with another thread where it had been asked (requesting this report is par for the course around here, as it is the best way we can look for common causes of problems).


Thank you for posting, I will have a look at it and will come back.
