App does not launch on Mac Intel: Bad CPU type in executable

Hello !
I've downloaded the latest version for mac Intel:

https://github.com/mountain-loop/yaak/releases/download/v2026.1.0/Yaak_2026.1.0_x64.dmg

Launching the app does nothing, and launching it from the terminal give me the following error:

thread 'main' (98106) panicked at /Users/runner/work/yaak/yaak/crates/yaak-plugins/src/manager.rs:146:14: called Result::unwrap() on an Err value: IoErr(Os { code: 86, kind: Uncategorized, message: "Bad CPU type in executable" }) note: run with RUST_BACKTRACE=1 environment variable to display a backtrace

Mac2026.1.0

same on my mac intel, I’ve asked claude to check, it seems the bundle nodejs (yaaknode) is using arm64

There's an architecture mismatch in the app bundle:

  • Your Mac: Intel x86_64

  • Main app binary (yaak-app): x86_64 ✓

  • Bundled Node.js (yaaknode): arm64 (Apple Silicon) ✗

Same for me on a 2019 intel mac running MacOS 15.7.3.

vst

Currently, I can only roll back to version 2025.9.3 for the software to open normally. The two subsequent versions both fail to launch.
