VictronConnect 6.05 crashes on Mac Big Sur when opening a second time

I have an old Macbook that is still running Big Sur 11.7.10. when opening Victron Connect 6.05 for the first time it runs perfectly. When running again it crashes. When I create a new use on my system and run Connect the first time everything ok. when running a second time it crashes.

Here the last part of the terminal log that contains the warnings, etc.

@Windhoos Can you try to open VictronConnect from the Launchpad and let me know if it also crashes?

I am having the same issue. It worked fine upon first installation and run. same macOS version 11

Quit the App and relaunched it the following day and it would only crash.


Tried to find the relevant files it is creating that it must be opening and the crash occurs.
