same on my mac intel, I’ve asked claude to check, it seems the bundle nodejs (yaaknode) is using arm64

There's an architecture mismatch in the app bundle:

  • Your Mac: Intel x86_64

  • Main app binary (yaak-app): x86_64 ✓

  • Bundled Node.js (yaaknode): arm64 (Apple Silicon) ✗

Do you see an error or anything? Can you try launching it from the terminal to see the full logs?

I had the same problem.
2026.2.0-beta.1 is working well on my side. Thanks for the fix :)

Currently, I can only roll back to version 2025.9.3 for the software to open normally. The two subsequent versions both fail to launch.
