Question

Figma Desktop crashes when opening a project

Hey. Today I was working on my projects, and as soon as I closed the Figma app in my Windows machine, when I reopened it started crashing when opening any project file.
I’m able to enter the main screen, but not projects.

I reinstalled the program, deleted the /Roaming/ and /Local/ folders… Nothing works… What can I do?
Thanks

Also from today Figma Agent crashes when opening Figma in Chrome or Firefox.

I found out that Figma now requires windows 8 or later. where my pc is windows 7. Is it the main issue for not opening the desktop app?

Im not sure if it’s just a bug on Windows 7 but my thoughts for this is that Figma team dropped support for Windows 7 (On W10 works fine). As the program is a web based tool, I don’t think there is a workaround for this…

I hope I’m wrong and maybe is just a bug on this OS versions and can get fixed soon.
