Figma archive file is too large to open and it keeps crashing
Hey @malavika krishna!
Just to make sure I understand correctly, when you say “archive file,” do you mean a draft file in Figma, or are you referring to something else?
To help narrow down what might be causing this, could you also share a bit more information?
One thing that may help in the meantime is clearing the Figma desktop app cache:https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/22380853110551-Clear-the-Figma-desktop-app-cache.
You can also try working through the troubleshooting checklist here:https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360040523973-Troubleshooting-checklist.
Once I have a bit more detail about your setup, I’ll be able to help further!
Hi @Gayani_S I had mailed myself a 960 MB file and I am trying to import it in the figma desktop app in a mac laptop. The file reloads for a while and then crashes . The app is uptodate. Please refer to the video I have attached below
