codex - 💡(How to fix) Fix Cannot open codex anymore [2 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

The issue might be resolved by downgrading to a previous version of the Codex App or waiting for a patch for version 26.422.30944.

Guidance

• The black screen at login suggests a potential compatibility issue with the latest version (26.422.30944) on Darwin 24.6.0 arm64 arm.
• Reinstallation did not resolve the issue, indicating the problem might be version-specific rather than installation-related.
• Since the steps to reproduce the bug involve upgrading to the latest version, it's plausible that the issue is specific to this version.
• Try to verify if other users with the same setup (Darwin 24.6.0 arm64 arm and Version 26.422.30944) are experiencing similar issues to confirm if it's a widespread problem.

Notes

The provided information does not include specific error messages or logs, which could help in pinpointing the exact cause of the issue. The suggestion to downgrade is based on the information that reinstalling the same version did not fix the problem.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Given the information, downgrading to a previous version of the Codex App might temporarily resolve the issue until a fixed version is released, as the current version seems to be the likely cause of the problem.
