Microsoft To-Do for Mac not opening, crashing immediately
same problem here: forced me to update and stopped working: it got stuck to a fake username (initial showing on the top left:#) and doesn't even open "settings" or "account" when I select them on the drop-down menu (just blinks, but does nothing). Of course I uninstalled and installed a few times, to no avail. From microsoft's account on facebook they replied once, telling me to be patient: an update was coming up. The update did come, I installed it on both laptop (several times, to be sure...) and desktop. The desktop version now works, but the laptop one is still in the same state. I even deleted all the microsoft stuff from the keychain. Nothing... The guys at the facebook messenger stopped replying. I am moving all time-critical stuff to mac's native app reminder. Works fine.
Microsoft to do crashes immediately after trying to open.
I tried all the above workouts.
they did not work
Same for me. I updated the MAC OS (from Big Sur to Sonoma), and it solved the issue.
This is my analysis: the update is only running on new versions of Mac OS. But there are users that cannot upgrade the system software, unless changing the hardware.
So the solution could be to have a legacy version of Microsoft To Do for such users, in order for them to be able to upgrade the hardware, at a later time...When back home I will try installing a backup version of Microsoft To Do, if I still have the backup available
