suddenly all content of all notes is inaccessible — replaced by "libSmartText expired"

The header says it all. A device which I've been using without major incident (MacBook Pro M1 Max, running Monterey 12.6.1 currently) was asleep. I woke it to enter a note in NVUlt beta (Version 1.0.0 (2022.10.20.02.25)). And the Navigation list was blank, instead of showing the three folders I use and toggle between depending on content. I opened each folder. Titles are intact. Content (and preview) reads as above "libSmartText etc. ..."

I checked the same folders (stored in DropBox) on another device on that device's copy of NVUlt and it's fine. I opened the files themselves from the finder in Preview and all content is intact. 

Didn't want to try to uninstall / reinstall, etc. until reporting this to you, in case there's something you want me to try to capture in the current state.

The device was asleep for maybe two hours, untouched, connected to power. No outages, etc. All other functionality seems normal.

Please Advise.

  This is my fault -- I thought I had updated a library prior to the last beta release but obviously did not.

  A new release should be pushed in a couple of hours that fixes this.  

  Nothing that I need from you, but thanks for offering.

  Happy to fix.  I wish it had been right from the beginning though!  My fault...

  I'm hitting the same issue today on nvUltra v1.0.0 on macOS 15.1.1. Let me know if any additional info would be helpful. Thanks.
