    Hi, I just downloaded Unity and am trying to load the editor, but after a couple of seconds of bouncing in the dock the app icon just disappears.

    So I opened the console to see if there are any logs and I see this:


    20:07:33.611682 +0900 Unity Unable to load the Interface Builder file MainMenuNew.nib because the object archive is missing. Valid nib files must contain either keyedobjects.nib, objects.nib, or data.nib. Full path: /Applications/Unity/Hub/Editor/2019.3.10f1/Unity.app/Contents/Resources/MainMenuNew.nib
    20:07:33.611768 +0900 Unity Unable to load nib file: MainMenuNew, exiting

    I did some googling and couldn't find any evidence that others have reported this problem. Could anyone please help me? Thanks!

    I'm on 2019.3.10f1 on MacOS 10.14.6 (18G3020) on a 13" 2018 Macbook Pro.

    Looks like not enough space during installation. Fixed after reinstall.
