Hi Krishna,
Can you try to clear out your app cache?

Mac:

  1. Quit the Figma desktop app
  2. Open Terminal.app and enter the following command: rm -rf "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Figma/"{Desktop,DesktopProfile}
  3. Try opening the desktop app again

On Windows:

  1. Close the Figma desktop app
  2. Open the Start menu, and paste in this, followed by enter: %APPDATA%\Figma
  3. In the window that opens, delete the Desktop and DesktopProfile folders if they exist
  4. Launch the desktop app again

And, if these workarounds don’t still help, please re-download the desktop from the downloads page, this should fix the issue: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039823654-Download-the-Figma-desktop-app
