Plugin and widget section not working

Hi everyone,

I’m not sure if there’s been a recent change or issue with Figma, but the Plugins and Widgets section was working fine for me until yesterday.

Starting today, the Plugins and Widgets panel isn’t loading at all.

I’ve already tried a few things:

  • Checked my internet connection
  • Restarted the app
  • Logged out and logged back in

Unfortunately, nothing has worked so far.

Is anyone else experiencing the same issue?

Kind regards,
Anand

    On windows start + r and enter %APPDATA%\Figma Delete all the contents in the folder. Uninstall figma. Download and install the figma desktop app again, this should fix the issue.

    Also had this problem yesterday (macOS). I downloaded and reinstalled the desktop version and it worked for me. 🙂

    Has anyone else fixed this on Mac? I have tried reinstalling and running the command above and nothing has worked.

    Hey everyone!  Thank you all for your patience as I’m sure this was frustrating being unable to search.
