Hello! I had a problem yesterday. The pages in Figma don't open, and I get error 106. My internet connection is good, and I've tried reinstalling the app, but it hasn't worked. What's the issue?

Hey
This error 106 usually points to a network setting that’s blocking Figma from connecting to essential resources, most often a firewall, proxy, or VPN. Let’s try a few steps to help get this resolved.
- Check your network configuration: Make sure your network settings are not blocking Figma. Add Figma to an allowlist in your computer's Firewall/Proxy, or try reaching out to your IT Admins (if you work in the Figma desktop from your office for example) to check that:
- Figma (*. figma.com) is added to any Proxy/Firewall or antivirus allow lists
- Port 443 is unblocked. You can find more details in our Adjust your network settings guide, and a list of addresses which should be allowlisted. - Clear your cache: Try clearing the cache for the Figma desktop app and your browsers. You can find instructions on how to clear the cache for the Figma desktop app here.
More information in our guide here.
If the issue persists after trying these steps, the next step would be to submit a bug report so our support team can investigate further.

Hello,
Since the early hours of today, I’ve been experiencing various connection-related issues, and most recently I encountered the error: “Connection error: -106.”
I keep receiving multiple notifications suggesting there might be a problem with my internet connection, but the fact that I’m using the same connection to create this topic makes the situation a bit ironic.
Does anyone have any idea what might be the main cause of this issue?
