Description
Big Sur build 20A5395g prevents Hyper from opening. The application starts, and the following lines are logged in syslog.
default 23:16:30.784627-0500 Hyper Helper LSExceptions shared instance invalidated for timeout.
default 23:16:34.579866-0500 Hyper LSExceptions shared instance invalidated for timeout.
The app then hangs, and a window never opens.

Research direction
Reproduce the failure on macOS Big Sur build 20A5395g and inspect the reported syslog lines for Hyper and Hyper Helper. The investigation is complete when Hyper opens a window instead of hanging; the issue does not name a file, test, or entry point to start from.
