Google-play-music-desktop-player-unofficial-: Blank screen after updating - OS X

[rameezv]

OS:
OS X 10.11.6

Issue Description:
The app shows a blank screen on startup after the latest update (3.6.0), even after reinstalling. It's appears the same as https://github.com/MarshallOfSound/Google-Play-Music-Desktop-Player-UNOFFICIAL-/issues/1037 except that it's on OS X.
Can still open settings.

EDIT: ALSO - there are no Audio Devices in the Audio Devices menu. Not sure if it's related.

Steps to Reproduce:

• Start app
• Wait for circle loader to spin a couple times
• See blank screen

Still haven't made to jump to the next Chromium version and there are known bugs RE GPU acceleration in this version. This is pending the Electron 1.4.0 release

@MarshallOfSound Cool, is there something we can do to use the app in the meantime? I don't know how to turn off GPU acceleration on OS X.

[MarshallOfSound]

@rameezv You should be able to get it to work by resetting the cache. Open terminal and type in

rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/Google\ Play\ Music\ Desktop\ Player/

This will completely reset the application but it should make it work 👍

@MarshallOfSound fixed your command to be rm instead of just m :+1:
