@ZxNuClear Thanks for looking into it on your end. I think this is because of the beta that you see the older/newer thing.
It took some time to update Xcode on my old macbook air but I think I found the issue this time, it would crash at startup when Sparkle (auto update) never had a chance to check for new updates. This should be fixed in this build.
Please close System Preferences before installing and try this build :

Again, thanks a lot for your help !
