Go to the App Store and make sure FCP is up to date.

Launch FCP while holding down Opt+Cmd to reset the preferences.

I'm on the latest macOS and FCP, no real issues.

Thank you. I have the latest version of FCP and was working in it recetnly before upgrading to Tahoe. I relaunched FCP with the Opt+Cmd keys and FCP is working now, though I have to reload my libraries.

Yeah, don't load up Libraries you're not actively working on at that moment. Eats up RAM unnecessarily. Open and close Libraries as you use them. Helps performance. Glad it's working again.
