BAD CRUMB WTF?

So I decided to reinstall my Sound Forge PRO MAC 2.0, only to discover this BAD CRUMB error message. I have found the time to work with the software again, but now it will not run on my MAC. From the numerous posts here, I must assume I am screwed.

Apparently the program will no longer work with the newer MAC o/s, so am I to assume the software is now USELESS?

This is very distressing, as it was not "cheap" software.

I will check back later to see if Sound Forge has come up with a solution to this problem, and it will certainly prevent me from spending ANY more money with this company if their answer is "Tough Titties. You should not have updated your MAC o/s..."

This is what they replied (4/23/2020) to my support request regarding Sound Forge Pro Mac and Catalina.

"Greetings from Sound Forge Support,
Thank you for contacting us. Unfortunately, at this time there is no clear answer to what the future of Sound Forge Pro Mac will be. There are no plans in the foreseeable future to update the program to be compatible with Catalina, and it is hard to say whether or not the Mac line will continue at all. I apologize for the inconvenience of this and we thank you for your time and understanding."

I have been using SF since 1995 (Sonic Foundry) on Windows. I thought Magix was going to keep going forward with the Mac version making it as good as the Windows one but I guest I was wrong.
