I think this is a bug:

https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs-desktop/blob/e16b1e7374b0d614c4bd2416b7b75cd58f45d85e/src/webui/index.js#L143

@hacdias should be an easy fix, mind taking a look?

I think there are two different "problems" happening here:

  1. Key 'FN_LAUNCH_WEB_UI_FOO' is not a valid analyticsKey, which is, indeed, what you mentioned. Addressed in #2224.
  2. start daemon undefined, which seems that starting the daemon is indeed failing, but there is some problem with the error. Still taking a look at this. Addressed in #2225.

The real error is hidden by the 'undefined' part. After #2225 is merged and after the next release, @Heynsss should upgrade and try with the new version and see if the error persists. If it does, we can further debug the error.

Both of the PRs have been merged, so this should be resolved. Please let us know if you're still experiencing an issue by re-opening this issue. @Heynsss

this error still persists. I updated to the latest version of the desktop app, temporarily for a few hours it worked and now it's showing the error.
