Hi!

I have a problem with my very important project.

P.S:

This actions didn’t help

  • Clear the cache and restart from inside the app: click the toggle arrow in the top toolbar, then go to Help > Troubleshooting > Clear Cache and Restart. This resolves it in most cases. Steps here: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/22380853110551
  • Make sure the desktop app is on the latest version, and if it still fails, reinstall it.
  • Try a different network, such as a mobile hotspot, in case a firewall, VPN, or antivirus is interfering.
  • As a quick test, open the same file in a browser. If it works there, that points to something specific to the desktop app on your machine rather than the file itself.

Hey Vision team, Celine from the Community Support team at Figma here, thanks for trying those steps! Clearing the cache, updating/reinstalling the desktop app, switching networks, and testing in browser were exactly the right things to try, and I appreciate you working through all of them before reaching out.

Based on what you've shared, the "Something went wrong" error persists after all of that, including in the browser, not just the desktop app. Since it's happening in both places on your account, this points to something we need to investigate on our side rather than a setting on your machine.

I can see this has already been escalated to our technical quality team, they'll be able to look into it further. I’ve also added a follow-up note directly to your case. For reference, your support case is 2023714. Thanks for your patience in the meantime, someone will review it and follow up via your support case.

    Hi!

    I wanted to check if there have been any updates regarding my question. I can't work without this file—it's absolutely essential for our team...

    Hey ​@Vision Team , thanks for following up! I'm sorry for the wait, and I completely understand how impactful this is when it's blocking work on an essential file.

    Our support team is currently experiencing a higher volume of requests than usual, which has led to longer response times. I've gone ahead and added another follow-up note to your existing support case and escalated it internally to help keep it on the team's radar.

    Thank you for your continued patience. The team will reach out via your support case as soon as they have an update or if they need any additional information!
