It has been a while since working on my site but my latest version opens and I am able to make changes and save. The minute I try to preview RW crashes. It worked fine enough before the update to Monterey. Any suggestions or work arounds? Thanks.

Yes thank you . I was trying to update it but the installer would shut down as well. I’ll check my computer to make sure I have enough room for the install and try again. 🙃

So I have 44GB of space on my laptop but RW continues to not update to 8.3. It downloads and the message states is ready to install. I allow and then it crashes with no sign of an installer anywhere.  
Any extra thoughts to help resolve this? Most appreciated.
