Cubase 12 Pro continually crashing

To start I have never had an issue with cubase before, always rock solid and very reliable until now. Upgraded to Cubase 12 Pro and started working on sessions from 11, at first everything was ok then things started going wrong. List as follows.

Adding new audio tracks - crashed
Adding new instrument tracks - crashed
editing audio and midi parts - crashed
Loading new soft synths, spectronsonics Omnisphere, keyscape, Superior Drummer - crash

Should I just reinstall? or is there something I am missing here.

Mac Pro (Dustbin) OSX Monteray 32gb ram glyph audio drives, Scarlett 18i8 with Octopre dynamic ADAT.

Hi and welcome to the forum,

Cubase crashes on launch.

How can I start cubase 12 with all my 3d party plugins? Cubase 12 opens when I deactivate 3d party plugins, but I need to use those plugins.
