Hi, as soon as i select the compiler codeblocks crashes. I can't even manage plugins to disable the code completion plugin which I've been instructed to do. Please, please help!

[basic]

it keeps crashing after i select the compiler

For me, it doesn't open after I put it into the Applications folder. Once I try to open it, it says the developer can't be verified, so I don't even get to the point of selecting a compiler...

Crashes immediately after selecting compiler. I can't even manage plugins and disable code completion. Please help!

The first thing that appears to me when I select the compiler “Report a problem with CodeBlocks”. CodeBlocks has terminated unexpectedly. HELP I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!
