Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Just try launching the application. Double clicking it in the Finder or even in the Terminal using /Applications/Blender.app/Contents/MacOS/blender --factory-setup

Event Timeline

Bastien,

This morning I downloaded the most recent Daily Build, version rB0812949bbc3d and found that it had the exact same problem. I tried launching it using the Terminal with a --factory-setup, still crashed right upon launching.

But when I take the macOS route and delete:

~/Library/Application Support/Blender/2.81

The Daily Build opens up again! So the --factory-setup doesn't delete those preferences and settings files and give Blender a true factory settings clean start.

@Anton Raves (Memento) Is this still an issue with latest build? https://builder.blender.org/download/

I do not think it is a bug but activating Blender its factory-setup does not go far / deep enough, it does not delete preference files. Back then Blender crashed and kept crashing, until I manually deleted the Preferences folder for Blender.

Yes --factory-startup is temporary parameter. If you want pernament action, you have to delete them manually or save and overwrite from factory startup. But that's besides the point.

I am asking if you (by any chance) have still same problem with latest build.

With the current beta 2.82 and macOS 10.15.2 Catalina I have not had the problem yet, no...
