Trying to run SoftRAID 8.3 for the first time, and I am receiving the following error. It tells me to restart the program but nothing changes. I am running a Mac Mini M4PRO with Sequoia 15.3.1. I have granted SoftRAID full system access. 

SoftRAID Error
An internal part of the SoftRAID Monitor has stopped functioning properly. Please quit SoftRAID and relaunch it.

Ideas?

Thanks!

Mike

Solved thanks to another post:

In System Settings/General/login items, is OWC listed?
If it is, then "uncheck" it
Close System Settings, open again, then re-enable it and restart.
Does SoftRAID Launch now?

If it does not, try manually adding the SoftRAID Monitor to startup items.

Open System Settings/General/Login Items
Unlock the pane
Navigate to this folder:
/library/Application Support/SoftRAID
in there is SoftRAID Monitor, drag and drop it into the load at startup items panel.

Restart and see if SoftRAID 8 can launch now.

For now, yes that is the workaround. I cannot find a better one. Until I can make it happen in house, engineering does not really know what is triggering this issue.
