The app won’t start

Crashes and blank screens on launch.

Updated August 2026

Quick sequence

  1. Fully quit and relaunch — including from the system tray / menu bar, where the app may still be running.
  2. Restart the computer. It clears wedged state that app restarts miss.
  3. Check your OS is supported — Bridge targets current Windows and macOS versions.
  4. Reinstall the current build. Your work is safe: projects are your own folders, untouched by a reinstall.

If it keeps happening

A crash that survives a reinstall is one the team wants to hear about. Send when it started, what OS you are on, and what changed recently (OS update? new antivirus?) — see Getting help.
