FCPX 10.4.2 Exporting Issues

Just received the latest update and now it does not appear my projects are rendering nor will it export directly. I can only send to compressor. Is this operator error? If so how do I turn the setting back?

FCP 10.4.2

COM 4.4.1

Sierra 10.13.4

iMac, macOS High Sierra (10.13.4), iMac (Mid 2011)

This was a Read/Write permissions issue. I had to duplicate the project on the internal drive and remove it from the external. So tired of constantly battling with Apple permissions. Is there anyway to ensure "Apple Locks" are not placed on my projects and copyright footage. 99% of my issues are because of Apple Permissions -- all in the name of "Security Features" I don't want on my equipment. I so wish they would design a professional product for business use. I have no interest in "tagging my bff" I am trying to run a business. Close to 40 hours of extra work on this project. Thanks again for you help.

This is a project I have worked on for three years and I have never had this issues before. It is showing a dotted line above the timeline indicating it has not been rendered. There are still photos imported into photos and video shot on iPhone, Canon T6i direct import and files are stored in the bundle and the cash is in a shared folder on the internal hard drive. The bundle is 60gb and is currently stored on an external drive. Did not bother with importing it onto the internal as I just needed to export a DVD copy for a client. Several hundred GB available on both drives and I am using 16GB RAM. I think it may be permissions. I use my production computers for work only and I do not use iCloud. I do have to wipe the internal drive once or twice a year when major updates come in. This is when the permissions become an issue. This, however, is the first time it has disabled rendering and exporting of of files. Usually I can override Apples presets.
