What's Wrong?
I updated my mac to the latest operating system last night. Now when I open the claude desktop app, it freezes immediately (I get the spinning color wheel). My only option is to force close the app. I tried restarting the app as well as restarting my computer and nothing is working.
What Should Happen?
It should work normally
