I also had this problem on Ubuntu 22.04.
Must use sudo privileges to do this… :innocent:

Ha yes ok ! thanks a lot i would never think to this !

Was it working on Windows with Administrator permission only?

Maybe have you saved your project to a location which needs extra privileges (e.g. into Program Files)?

I think this problem come from x11 desktop environment !
I fixed this problem with the step below:
On Ubuntu 22.04:
1- download and extract SquareLine_Studio_Linux_v1_1_1.zip.
2- Open file name squareline_studio.desktop.template
3- find line:
Exec="__folder__/SquareLine_Studio.x86_64" %U
and replace with :

Exec=bash -c "export GDK_BACKEND=x11 && __folder__/SquareLine_Studio.x86_64"

save it !
4- run script ./setup.sh

Done !
run SquareLine_Studio.x86_64 software and Enjoy …

Thanks! I’ll keep in mind if others report similar issue.

Note that doing export GDK_BACKEND=x11 this way disappears if you restart your PC.

I have the same problem on Windows
How can i fix it ?
i think it may happened when i was saving the project and the electricity gone

-------- [edit]
the file looks like corrupted
i tried to open a working .spj file on a text editor and i got json output but my project .spj file is not giving me json content
and the file is not 0KB btw

and the last backup it’s not corrupted but its not working!

Hi, sorry to hear about your project file issue! Power outages during saves can definitely cause file corruption problems.
I’d recommend checking your older backups to see if any of them are functional. Also, if you had the autosave feature enabled (which is on by default), check inside the “autosave” folder within your project directory - you might find some working versions there.

sadly none of the backups are working, i had to re make everything, but still i am having bugs with the app
