I keep getting this error: Claude Code process exited with code 1

It happens when I switch users in my Mac (macOS Sequoia 15.5).

Both Mac users have separated Claude Desktop installations, I've tried unistalling and re installing Claude Desktop, but it happens again, the only way it fixes is when I restart the computer, but when I swith users it happens again.

I've tried every command Claude recommended (via web), and this keeps happening.

I can't use Claude Desktop at all.

What Should Happen?

I should be able to use Claude Desktop.
