Hey winman, welcome to our Community!

I'm sorry to hear you're having issues with our desktop app on your computer. Could you try to re-install  and let me know if you still get this error? 

Keep me posted!

Following this guide seemed to work. A regular uninstall kept having the same issue, but we are all good now.
