Refresh Multilogin components when a browser profile cannot start because required local component files are missing, outdated, or corrupted.
➡️ Close Multilogin → open the mlx folder → delete only the deps folder → reopen Multilogin → start the affected profile to download its required components again.
Deps
This action is completely safe! It refreshes the app components needed for Multilogin to work smoothly. No data will be lost during the process, so you're good to go! 😊
Avoid deleting the mlx folder, as this may result in a complete or partial data loss.
The deps folder stores local components Multilogin needs to start profiles. Multilogin downloads the required components again after the folder is refreshed.

- Go to the mlx folder:

Windows:

macOS:
/Users/%username%/mlx -
Linux:
/home/%username%/mlx

Windows:

- Reopen the desktop app 🖥️ or reconnect the agent for the web interface 🌐
- Start any profile – this will automatically kick off the components download process
