When updating to 2.13.0 a few users have encountered issues where their desktop client would no longer launch.

A work around for some has been to uninstall and install the release directly: [https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat.Electron/releases/tag/2.13.0](https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat.Electron/releases/tag/2.13.0)

We will follow up here when this is resolved.

2.13.1 solved the non-start issue for me - thank you
