Today, my Safari browser crashed when I was using it. When I relaunched, it started loading the tabs, but then crashed again. I have tried: rebooting, clearing cache, launching in Safe mode (worked for a little while, then crashed as well), deleting Safari preferences, and even a system restore to latest Sonoma. All the other apps workfine, just Safari as not working. at all. I just get the following crash:
Any ideas?

It seems to be triggered by accessibility settings. The solution here: Accessibility settings crash browsers - Apple Community works for me.
In short, you have to open your /User/<your-username>/Library/Preferences and delete com.apple.SpeakSelection.plist
This seems to improve things for me. Note that it happened to *all* browsers, not just safari. Unusable…until this. Thank you!
Thanks for the suggestion, but I ended up giving up and doing a clean install. That obviously worked. :). Finishing reinstalling everything now, but it was a while since I did a clean install, so I don't consider this a waste. Thanks anyways for the suggestion.

Same here. Started today with general websites like costco.com and homedepot.com.
Tries everything mentioned above.
Very frustrating.
Deleting the above mentioned list fixed the problem. I’m able to use all browsers now.
Safari 17.5 crashes on launch every time. Any ideas.
