bitwarden desktop 2026.10.1 on macos ventura (x64) crashes the second you open it. not a hang, an uncaught exception, and 2026.10.0 still launches fine on the same machine so this isnt some random local profile thing.

symbol not found in flat namespace '_OBJC_CLASS_$_ASSettingsHelper'

desktop_napi.darwin-x64.node is looking up ASSettingsHelper and ventura just doesnt have that symbol. later 10.x builds are getting the same crash so waiting on a point release might not help.
 
bitwarden closed the github issue on this. they couldnt reproduce it and said macOS 13 isnt supported anymore, so no fix is coming. stuck on 2026.10.0 or a newer macOS.
