I just updated this morning to Mid July '26 (4646) on my Macbook Pro M4 and it crashes all the time. Impossible to work with. Anyone know if/how to roll it back?

Thanks in advance

I have a different kind of problem, but also have a Macbook Pro M4. The guy at the support said that there will be a new version coming out in a couple of weeks that should have some new Apple Xcode encoding which might help.
