Hi folks. I have an issue and was wondering how to resolve it.I have biab 2023 installed on a 1tb SSD Sandisc external hd.  I've NO space on my main HD left to run it so it has to be run externally.
 My problem is that if I have to power off the imac ( Sonoma ), I have to reinstall all the RTs which is a real pain. Anyone got any idea how to solve this please ?.
 Had most of the RT downloaded & installed, then it froze and I have to redownload EVERYTHING again. Drivin me mad.
 Here's a copy of the fault log
