Description
What happened?
It can run normally only during the initial installation. After exiting and launching the installation program, it will enter a crash state when restarting: the taskbar icon flashes with an exclamation mark on it, and then crashes. The software has been set up to have full access to the disk.
Only by clicking the downloaded installation file again can you continue to enter normally.
You can also enter using the terminal version of macos, but the app cannot.
Syncthing version

Research direction
Reproduce the relaunch crash on macOS Sequoia 15.1 with an M4 Mac, comparing normal app launch, launching from the terminal, and reopening the installation file. Start by collecting the macOS crash report and relevant logs; done means the installed app can be closed and launched again without crashing.
