“Live unexpectedly quit” on startup

Every time I launch Live Suite 10.1 I’m getting “Live unexpectedly quit” on startup.
Oddly enough When I discard this pop up Live seems to be running OK. I’m on macOS.
Any ideas how to resolve this issue?
Thanks in advance

Sorry but I’ll bump this question
I have deleted Ableton pref files, reinstalled Live, removed and disabled all plugins but issue still persist.
Please help, I’m sure that someone here must have the solution.
Help please...

You should contact support as this is outside the ability of anyone here to fix.
that said: If its crashing on start and your default set has a Max device in it somewhere - go get the latest Max 8 from Cycling74, install it and use Ableton prefs to point to the alternative version of Max.
I had the same issue and that's what seems to have resolved it for me. The bundled Max had an issue.
