Closed my issue, as the only difference is the OS. Following this one.

This error occurs in 0.36.0 as well. See above issue (2839).

@rtxs34 did you install ipfs desktop via macports? I ask because some of your files are in /opt which is where macports installs(and mine are not installed there).

@rtxs34 @jc-frosty any idea how reproduce this problem?

[jc-frosty]

Not sure. I have just opened IPFS on what computer I probably had the error on and there is no error. I don't know if it took a specific action. I am running macOS Sonoma 14.6.1, and I don't know what Darwin version that translates to(that is how I would identify which computer I filed the report from/for).
