Flipper won't open, shows blank screen

🐛 Bug Report

I have been working on using Flipper for React Native development. Everything has been working fine, however now Flipper will not open and shows a blank screen.

Here is the blank screen that I see.

I have uninstalled, multiple times. Also have tested with multiple Flipper versions, however I am not able to solve this. I have also followed the steps on Flipper won’t launch on Mac, and have had no luck.

Every time I open app I get before getting the empty screen Flipper Helper (Renderer).app

Also here are the logs when I Toggle Developer Tools.

To Reproduce

The last thing I remember doing on Flipper was changing the shortcuts for the reload functionality, and while testing the shortcut the app crashed. Since then I have not been able to open it again even after multiple fresh installs.

Environment

macOS Catalina - 10.15.4 Flipper 0.40 -> however reverting back to 0.37 -> 0.39 does not resolve the issue.

Thanks for the report @leoafarias ,

Remarkably, it looks like there may be a bug in electron related to global hotkeys: https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/16206

Could you paste the contents of ~/.config/flipper/settings.json here so we can see (if it is the shortcuts that did this) what shortcuts are set that causes this problem?

Thanks.

If you manually edit that file, and remove the reactNative section, you’ll likely be up and running again, failing that you could try getting rid of the file entirely.
