I have a machine with the same (unsolved even with v4.0.2) issue, but it's not MAC.For now, try to see if you can find something in the "log"; to enable it without a working Electrum GUI, you need to edit the config file in the data directory: Data Directory Locations (https://electrum.readthedocs.io/en/latest/faq.html#datadir) (AFAIK it will create the files even if the GUI won't launch) Open "config" with a text editor and edit "log_to_file": false, into "log_to_file": true, If there's no line for the log config, manually add it below "is_maximized": false, (follow the indentation). Then launch Electrum, it won't start since it's the issue. After a few seconds, open 'Data Directory\logs' and open the log (txt) file and check the contents for possible 'clues'. If you didn't find entries like "...| INFO | gui.qt.ElectrumGui | Qt GUI starting up", we have the same issue: electrum/issues/5974 (https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues/5974) Title: Re: Electrum wont open on Mac OS 10.7.5....? Post by: HCP on August 11, 2020, 09:48:36 PM Hi ummmm... just wanted to point out that 13 is higher than 7... so if it is "10.13 or higher"... then I guess that probably explains why it doesn't work on 10.7 ;)Electrum wont open on Mac OS 10.7.5, even tho it's stated to be compatible with Mac OS 10.13 and higher...?
