InDesign crashes/freezes on Quit
When quitting from MacOS Dock (right-mouse click on the icon), Indesign crashes like most of the time.
There are many internal as well as external factors that can cause the InDesign application to crash/freeze/hang.
We would recommend you to upgrade to latest version as it is more robust.
If you still face this issue even after updating, please submit the crash report to us. (Guidelines to submit crash are available at https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/kb/submit-crash-reports.html)

InDesign regularly freezes (requiring a force quit) when I try to quit the application. This only seems to happen after the machine has been asleep for a while. It doesn't matter if I have a file open or not at the time that I try to quit.
Indesign v16.0 on 11.5 Big Sur.
It quits properly if the machine hasn't been to sleep since launching the app. -

I can end the Indesign process in Task Manager, and then Indesign will open again just fine. Or I can reboot the computer, and again it will open without problems.
