What's Wrong?

after last update 16.april 2026 the desktop app interface, crashed in the middle of my work, and lost all my claude code history. I have il all localy, but no more in desktop app. That was helping me, using fast and reliable the app. I am reconsidering to close my account, if this kind of instability continnues.

What Should Happen?

After update, my code chat history should be present. like it was for the last two months, at least.
