Missing Fonts popup makes Figma unusable

Dear Figma Forum,

I see several issues posted about the Missing Fonts popup using Figma. This is a SHOWSTOPPER bug with no verified workaround or root cause identified… that I can find. I gave up after 2 hours. I am unable to use Figma when the ‘Missing Fonts’ dialog pops up with every copy/paste and other frequent actions. Does anyone have a recommended way forward? I like using Figma, but will abandon it until I can find a non-destructive way forward, e.g. not re-installing the OS, removing/reinstalling all my local fonts, reinstalling all my Adobe Creative Suite apps, etc.

I am running Mac OS Sonoma 14.5. No other apps have issues accessing fonts installed on my laptop. I have tried Figma on both the browser edition and desktop app. For ‘Fonts installed by you’, it says ‘No Fonts Found’. I am currently the only member of the team on a free plan (for now). The files under edit were previously edited by other team members before they left.

Tried restarting, reinstalling Figma to no avail. None of the fonts used in the current design file is in the missing fonts list. Why is Figma reporting on fonts that I do not use? (Jakarta, SF Pro, Satoshi…)

Thanks!
