YACReaderLibrary has started to crash (quit unexpectedly) immediately on trying to open it.

I'm running MacOS 10.15.7 (Catalina) on a 2012 MacBook Air. This had been working perfectly with YACReaderLibrary 9.13.1 for some time, until yesterday.

I've tried reinstalling 9.13.1 (both Qt6 and Qt5), with no improvement. I then installed 9.13.0, which would open, and rebuilt my comic library. However on restarting my laptop today, that will not open either.

The only thing I can think of is that I've been restarting my laptop a lot in the past couple days - generally I restart rarely. It's possible the problem started after my first restart since storing my comic collection on my hard drive rather than an external drive (external drive failed so I'm rebuilding collection from scratch).

Any help I can get would be appreciated. Ultimately I'll be moving YACReaserLibrary to a server, but until then, this is causing a major issue!

Problem report is long, but here are some bits that look relevant?:

The only YACReader folder is at: /Users/admin/Library/Application Support/YACReader This has a YACReaderLibrary folder, which has a YACReaderLibrary.ini in it if that's what I'm looking for?
