Check your firewall/ antivirus that might be blocking the connection of app.

Hey @hide, sorry to hear you’re having trouble with your Figma app!

What OS are you using? Have you tried clearing your desktop app’s cache?
Are you able to share a screenshot of the error code you’re receiving?

Here’s how to clear the desktop app cache on a 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

Here’s how to clear the desktop app cache 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

Let us know how it goes!
