    1. Make sure you installed the Apple Silicon build

      • ABP Studio has separate installers for:
        • macOS Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3)
        • macOS Intel
      • If you installed the Intel build on an M‑series Mac, uninstall it and install the Apple Silicon one instead.
    2. Run ABP Studio from Terminal to see the error This usually shows exactly why it is not starting.

    # Close ABP Studio if it's running / stuck
       pkill "ABP Studio" 2>/dev/null
    
       # Run it manually
       "/Applications/ABP Studio.app/Contents/MacOS/ABP Studio"
    
    • If there is a problem (missing permission, missing file, etc.), you will see an error in the terminal.
    • Keep that output; it is very useful for debugging.
    1. Check ABP Studio logs on macOS ABP Studio writes its own logs under your home folder. On macOS they are typically here:

      • UI logs:
    ls ~/.abp/studio/ui/logs
    
    • Backend logs:
    ls ~/.abp/studio/backend/logs
    

    Open the latest .log file from each folder and look for ERROR lines around the time you tried to start Studio.

    1. Clean local ABP Studio data and retry Sometimes a broken previous install or corrupted local data prevents startup.
    # Close Studio first
       pkill "ABP Studio" 2>/dev/null
    
       # Backup and remove Studio data
       mv ~/.abp/studio ~/.abp/studio-backup-$(date +%s)
    
       # Then reinstall ABP Studio (Apple Silicon build) and run it again
    
    1. If it still will not open
      • Run it again from Terminal as in step 2.
      • Collect:
        • The terminal output
        • The latest UI and backend log files from ~/.abp/studio/.../logs
      • Then create a support ticket on abp.io and attach these logs so the team can see the exact exception on your Mac.

    These steps are the standard way we diagnose “ABP Studio starts and immediately closes / doesn’t open” issues on macOS Apple Silicon.

    Hi,

    Could you please check whether the following file exists on your machine and, if so, share it with us?

    This will help us investigate the issue more effectively.

    Thank you in advance.
