Trying to create 2nd device QR through desktop app disconnects account

Hi

Delta Chat Desktop 1.46.1 (git: v1.33.0-881-g899f196d)
Delta Chat Core v1.140.2
SQLite 3.39.4
electron 30.0.6
node 20.11.1

When I click ‘Add second device’, this screen shows up:
creating qr for 2nd device

And it keeps stuck here. Once I ‘Cancel’ it, the account gets disconnected in Deltachat:

disconnected

And when I click ‘Connectivity’, this error is shown:

Error IO not started

The account reconnects fine once I click ‘Try to connect now’.

can you send a log from main menu’s “View / Developer / Open Current Logfile”?

It gives following error:

The error message "Error: IO Not Started" was displayed to me a few times after starting DC-iOS. I thought so far that it could have something to do with the connection problems.

does opening the log folder work or is that also broken?

Opening the log folder gives following error:
