Hi, after I updated to macOS Big Sur Beta 5, Safari crashes immediately after I open it. I have tried clearing all caches, and deleting all extensions using another app, but none of them works. Please help. Thank you!

EDIT: It seems that the startup page keeps showing up. Is there a way to reset Safari completely without opening it, including resetting the startup page?

The error code is: Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'Invalid parameter not satisfying: image != nil'

Thanks!

Found this question when I ran into the same issue... finally fixed it so I wanted to share. In my case, I have to move this directory out of the way:

Code Block /Users/user_name_here/Library/Containers/Safari

out of the way. I renamed it to Safari.bak while testing it. It worked, so I ended up deleting it. Something must have been corrupted in it. I have no inside knowledge, so your guess is as good as mine as to what precisely happened. Use at your own risk but I hope it works for you, too :-)
