On mac that would be:
- terminate LyX if actually running
- use in Finder „Go to Folder“ with the term „Library“ starting at your home directory
- open Application Support
- rename the folder LyX-2.3 to e.g. LyX-2.3-2023-08-09

I’ve sort of tolerated it because I mostly collaborate now rather than writing myself — getting old and rusty. For collaborations I use Overleaf though I still prefer LyX.
