Rhino won't start

What should I do from here? It’s stuck like that:

When I force-quit I get a report. Here’s the first few lines (I can send the whole report if needed):

Any luck?

Do you or did you have enscape installed on this machine? If so see Option 2 in this guide (enscape for a short time was creating folders with improper permissions)

No Enscape.
I think the only plug-in installed is Bella 24.6.0.0

Is there a way to start in “safe mode”?

Unfortunately there isn’t a Safe Mode for Rhino Mac.

To disable a plugin you can follow this guide.
