Issue:
Since around canary 2505 Citra has failed to run Vulkan drivers and crashes. I can still run most of my games slowly with software renderer, and version 2505 gives a more useful error screen than the crash screen I get with version 2575. Sometimes instead of crashing, it just attempts to load indefinitely

Right click on your game in Citra’s game list, then select Disk Shader Cache>Open Shader Cache Location. Delete the vulkan folder found here, then try again.
I haven’t had this specific crash since deleting the older versions and installing the new canary builds, but here is the macos crash report as copied out of the error prompt in the first screenshot
since reinstalling, I have had citra freeze without an error report being generated Systemcrashlog.txt (89.6 KB)
ok, I discovered where things went wrong for me. Under the settings/debug tab, “dump command buffers” was crashing the games upon loading. All my games now work normally after disabling such
