Final Cut Pro - doesnt start - Audiounits problem

My FCP doesn't boot.

I've tried the following:

Reinstalled the software from app store (after deleting local)
uninstalled audio software (UAE Apollo twin X)
option click FCP to startup with empty library - this option is not avaliable - I can with option click select old librayes but this doesn't solve that FCP will not boot.

My device is Mac mini 2018 - USX is Ventura 13.3.1

Mac mini, macOS 13.3

Updated to OS 13.3.1 and now Final Cut Pro (10.6.5) won't open ? Hello - I just updated my MacBook Pro to OS 13.3.1 and now Final Cut Pro (10.6.5) won't open. It states to open but get's stuck on "Validating Audio Units, Audio Ease: Altiverb 7 (12/86). It doesn't move from there and I can't close it or force quit so I have to press and hold the power button and restart to get FCP to close. I've tried deleting the preferences but that doesn't help. A few times when I try to open FCP it get's hung up validating a different plugin. I don't think the issue has to do with the plugins as they open fine in Logic Pro 10.7.7. Thanks for any help

Those were links to YouTube suggestions.

This should show some of them Final Cut Pro - Apple Community

Also if you want to try installing a previous OS you can follow these instructions.

There are several other threads on this forum with this problem which appears to have been caused by updating to the latest version of Ventura.

You could also try creating a new volume on your HDD with Disk Utility and instal an earlier version of the OS.

I moved out the conflicting components in the MacHD>library>audio>plugins>components

It did the trick -

I've (like the video described) made an external folder with the components if my LOGIC or other app's needs them.

What worked?

I'm sure you have not had time to implement any of those suggestions.
