RapidWeaver Crash Troubleshooting

Job ID: 40480234

Budget: $250 – $750 USD

I build and maintain all of my sites with RapidWeaver Classic, but the program now crashes the moment I switch into Edit mode. An alert simply says RapidWeaver is “having problems” and then the app quits—there’s no freeze-up period, just an abrupt shutdown. I haven’t added or updated any plugins, themes, or other extras, so this seems to be an internal or project-file issue rather than a third-party conflict.

What I need from you:

• Pinpoint the root cause of the Edit-mode crash (corrupt preference, problematic stack, macOS conflict, etc.)
• Guide me through (or remotely perform) the corrective steps—whether that involves cleaning preference files, isolating stacks, repairing the project file, or reinstalling RapidWeaver Classic.
• Deliver a short summary of the fix so I can repeat it if the problem reappears.

You’re welcome to request crash logs, Console output, or a copy of a project file for testing; I’m on macOS Monterey with the latest RapidWeaver Classic build. Once your solution lets me open any project and enter Edit mode reliably, the job is done.
