Dolphin wont start

11-22-2016, 08:35 PM #1

When i open up dolphin (click the app icon on my desktop), it will open up, but the spinning wheel of death will show up and the program will become unresponsive. This is everytime i open it. I even deleted it and got the newest version, but it still does the same thing. It started ever since i got project m and tried opening it in paths and it just locked up and it doesnt want to work anymore. Dolphin just keeps freezing and becoming unresponsive every time i start it up. Plz help.

What version of Mac OS are you running?
Also, have you tried removing the Global directory files for Dolphin? Sounds like a corrupted config file to me.

I dont know what 'global directory files' are, but i think you are right. Something might be corrupt. What should i do? Where do i go?

Check that thread for where the Global directory is. Delete the cache folder

Ok, i deleted the cache folder and reopened dolphin (it remade the folder itself) and it still becomes unresponsive upon startup. Should i delete dolphin entirely and reinstall it?

Certainly wouldn't hurt to try
