Crashing on loading Macbook Pro M1 Sequoia 15.0.1 and Audacity 3.2

I can’t find any posts about the following, so am starting this thread. I have a MacBook Pro M1, 16 GB, Sequoia 15.0.1 and Audacity 3.2. Every time I load Audacity I get the Automatic Crash Recovery dialog box. Sometimes I get a spill of long error codes, but not always. This bug is new for me with this version of Audacity. I’m just starting a new project and don’t want to risk losing files. Has anyone had this problem and found a solution to it? Thanks very much.

In the Finder, click on the Go menu, then Go to folder.
In the dialog, enter ~/Library/Application Support/audacity then press return or enter.
Open the SessionData folder and trash anything you find there.
Try starting Audacity.

billw58, thanks so much. It worked. Audacity opens without a problem now. I tested it several times, then created and saved a project, retested launching several times and all is good. I really appreciate your help!
