Non-empty AppPackage resulting in block errors, App Inventor offline

Hi there,
I´m finding an issue with one of my projects. I did some search through the repository and found some stuff that looks alike, but could not figure out what is wrong. I discovered where the problems lies almost by accident:

  • if my AppPackage is NOT empty, other blocks start to fail, reporting things like:

Cannot find the component: WelcomeScreen
Note: You will not see another error reported for 5 seconds.

  • I re-installed the offline AI, re-created the full project again, in case something got corrupt, and the symptoms remain.

  • I just noticed that if I set SplashScreenImage to something different from empty I have the same behavior.

I´m working with offline AI, versions used:
Built: May 1 2023 Version: 4.8.2
Use Companion: 2.66 or 2.66u
Android minSdkVersion: 19
Target Android SDK: 31 (Android 12.0)

TaifunTM extension is the only one used.

You can find the project at

Thank you!
Alex

Then you should ask the provider of the offline version for help...
