1. Yes, in a subfolder in Applications named SheepShaver.
2. I have solved the crash problem.
On my old MacBook Pro I had a running version of SheepShaver.
I replaced the SheepShaver prefs file on my Mac mini with the prefs file from my MacBook Pro.
Now SheepShaver starts without any problem on my Mac mini with Big Sur.
This is the prefs file on the Mac mini
before it was replaced by the MacBook Pro prefs file.
