Viewed 27

Used the in app 'Check for updates' capability to update to version 3.2.6 (1222) today.

After updating the application crashes at startup.

Used backups to restore v3.2.5.

Tried to update to v3.2.6 a 2nd time with same result.

Downloaded the trial version from the web site with same result.

A portion of the crash report is below:

Looking into this immediately

+1, I get an error window on launch. I updated using an external tool, got the error, then downloaded it from the site as a 'trial' and got the same error.

"Marked cannot be opened because of a problem.

Check with the developer to make sure Marked works with this version of macOS. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and macOS.

Confirming that build 1123 of 3.2.6 resolved the issue for me.

+1 Updated to 3.2.6 and it launches but renders plain text (no formatting)
