Error sending from webFrameMain: Error: Render frame was disposed before WebFrameMain could be accessed

[nstdspace]

Expected Behavior

Clean-Installing and opening Insomnia works

Actual Behavior

Insomnia does not start up at all

Reproduction Steps

I dont know. I tried to import a rather large request collection (this one) and got a blank screen. From there on, i could not start insomnia at all with the error given in the logs below. I tried deleting cache directiories, nothing. I reinstalled insomnia completely from scratch (using the .dmg and via brew) - nothing. I only get a blank screen. I then updated to 10.3.0 (was at 9.* before) and also the current beta, same behaviour.

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the issue tracker for this problem.

Which sync method do you use?

• Git sync.
• Insomnia Cloud sync.
• Local only

Last Known Working Insomnia version

I just want to mention, if it is not clear, that a software suddenly not starting up at all even after reainstalls is a complete deal breaker and reason enough to switch to another client.
Also, without the ability to start any version up I cannot recover my backups so I have to recreate all of my requests again.
