Not sure if this will help but it seems like sometimes the ~/.transformerlab directory gets created with root set as the owner. We are working on a fix for this, but if you have failed to get TransformerLab to start then you might be able to fix simply by deleting the ~/.transformerlab directory and trying again. If that fails you can try to change the owner by doing sudo chown -R $USER:$USER ~/.transformerlab, but you might end up having to whack-a-mole inside that directory to make sure everything is set to the right owner.

Will let you know when we fix the root issue.

The chown solution had not worked as the user had tried it earlier, keeping this open still to check up on the solution
