1. Install Blocked by OS
Windows
- SmartScreen warns "Unknown publisher": click "More info → Run anyway".
- Antivirus (Kaspersky, Norton) false positive: whitelist the installer.
macOS
- "Can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer": System Settings → Privacy & Security → click "Open Anyway".
- Apple Silicon (M-series) — download the arm64 build; Intel Macs — download x64.
2. White Screen on First Launch
- Usually initial resources haven't finished downloading — wait 30 seconds and relaunch.
- Still blank: delete user data and reopen:
- Windows:
%APPDATA%\dynara - macOS:
~/Library/Application Support/dynara
3. Browser Redirect After Login Doesn't Come Back to the App
- Confirm the system default browser is set correctly and allows the custom URL scheme (
dynara://). - If it never switches back, the login page has a "Copy code" option — paste it into the Desktop app manually.
4. Local Folder Channel Can't See Files
- Confirm the folder path is correct with read/write permission (especially on macOS —
~/Documents and ~/Desktop need authorization in Privacy settings). - Cloud-synced files (iCloud, OneDrive, Google Drive) still downloading appear as placeholders to the AI; wait for sync to finish.
5. High CPU / Memory
- Reload via menu → View → Reload after long sessions with many tabs.
- If persistent, report to [email protected] with the latest logs from menu → Help → Open Logs.
6. Auto-Update Failed
- A restart usually retries successfully.
- Corporate networks may block update servers — download the latest installer manually from dynara.io/download and install over the top (your data is preserved).
