WorldShip crashing and Edge errors after update

Recent updates are causing WorldShip to crash repeatedly during normal tasks like printing labels, while Edge throws errors immediately upon launch. Although users can reopen the applications to work temporarily, they inevitably crash again. This creates a persistent cycle of disruption affecting dozens of PCs across organizations while IT teams search for a fix.
