Zwift Launcher not running/crash Windows and Mac [1.1.8] [June 2023]

UPDATE JUNE 2
Mac users - we can use your help to verify some fixes that went live for you today.

A fix for the crash at launch on macOS was pushed out today. Next time you start Zwift, you should receive a game update that fixes the crash at launch. Please reboot your Mac and restart Zwift.

For M1 / M2 Mac users specifically:
Q1: After the update / reboot - did he launch crash go away? Were you able to log in and start Zwift, in other words?
Q2: On the Pairing Screen - did you see a message like Accept network incoming message?
Q3: If yes, and you give permission to that message - does that message go away next time you restart Zwift?

For Intel-based Mac users:
Q4: Are you also seeing these crashes and/or messages about accepting network incoming messages?

SECOND UPDATE: JUNE 2
We are pausing the phased rollout of 1.41 to more macOS users while we work on resolving the two issues (crash at launch and a persistent Accept Network message popup)

macOS users:
If you have not yet updated to Zwift v1.41 - you should see neither of these issues. Please confirm / deny.

If you already updated to Zwift v 1.41 - the next time you start Zwift, expect a déjà vu feeling that you’ve already updated. Reboot your Mac, and restart Zwift please. Let us know if you have either problem, thanks.
