@xcstatus, We just released v0.29.3. Can you test using this version?

Also, can you share all logs from /var/log/netbird?

After uninstalling netbird, delete the related files and reinstall it. The problem did not come up again。

rm -rf /etc/netbird ;
rm -rf /var/log/netbrid;
rm -rf /var/log/netbird.*

That does not sound like a good solution.
Somebody should look into why is this happening and fix the underlying problem.
@xcstatus can you please re-open the issue?

For me the same problem is happening on nearly all MacBooks in our company. Even after reinstalls (with a clean uninstall before).
