Desktop App stops after a few seconds (Mac)

Hi @beli120805,
It sounds like this problem is intermittent, is that correct? Or are you seeing that the app is closing a few seconds after starting, every time?

Have you tried a full uninstall and reinstall yet?

To do this, perform the following steps:

  • Uninstall odrive using the instructions from How do I uninstall odrive?. Uninstall will rename the current odrive folder, as a backup. More on that below.
  • Install odrive again.
  • Once odrive is back up and running, make sure it is working properly.
  • When you uninstall odrive it will rename the current default odrive folder to a backup name. You will find this folder in your user home directory named odrive_[current date and time] .
  • Exit odrive
  • Rename the current odrive folder to odrive-bak
  • Rename the backup folder that the uninstall created back to just ‘odrive’.
  • Start odrive again

odrive will see the folder and process the content in it. If you have lots of content it could take a while for odrive to finish processing, but once it has you should then be able to proceed as normal.
