Transfuser crashing PTU 2022.9

[docric]

I'm probably the only guy still using this plug-in... BUT...

... as of updating our PT rig to 2022.9 this am, anytime I launch AIR's Transfuser plug, the system crashes.

PT allows me to assign Transfuser to a track just fine.
Also, if the Transfuser track is already completed, playback works w/o problems.
When I click on the inserted plug to open it up for editing, however, PT crashes.

Tried it in multiple different sessions... same result.
Created a brand new session w/ one stereo instrument track- same result.

I use the AIRIEP3 plugs a lot in my work... the rest of their plugs are working fine.
I've reached out to InMusic/AIR & await reply, but past history tells me not to hold my breath.
Additionally, I've sent multiple crash reports to Avid this am.
System specs below... anyone else out there using this plug w/ 2022.9?
