If IBM Notes 9.0.1 freezes on startup

If IBM Notes freezes unexpectedly at startup or takes a long time to start, it may be due to – for whatever reason – changed security settings under macOS (Mojave, 10.14 to 10.14.3).

Make sure that in your System Preferences… –> Security & Privacy –> Accessibility the box for IBM Notes is not (!) checked.

For some reasons after an macOS upgrade the box sometime is checked.
Unfortunately this doesn’t fix the latest problem for Notes 9.0.1 for Mojave 10.14.4.
