Hey Julie,
Have you tried using the method above? did it work?

tried this but there was no figma folder so, I still don’t understand why it’s not working.

Thanks for sharing! It works here like a charm

@Benxoft
If that method does not work, use this method because it worked for me.
In the same “C:\Users\Jayden\AppData\Local” directory where “Jayden” is your username directory, there will probably be a folder named “squirrel temp” or squirrel something. Delete that folder, refresh the file explorer, and try downloading the Figma app again. It worked for me when I did it. Hope this helps other people too.

Hi, sooo I faced the same problem when trying to install the latest Figma version. I tried all of the solutions on this thread, but none working. Is it related with the outdated windows on my PC?

@Jejen_Alimudin I had the same issue and the solutions above although worked on other users but not mine. What i did was search “Figma” on the file explorer, then deleted every Figma file that i can delete, it solved my problem. I think the issue was it can’t install the app since you already have the file in the same directory. hope this helps.
