zeznic Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 I'm a quite new premium user of LaunchBox/BigBox and can't say enough how awesome it is! However, I have a very annoying problem happening often that I can't seem to find a solution for. Not always, but most of the time BigBox doesn't seem to exit properly and just stays as an invisible process (see attached image) in the task manager never disappearing. I have let it be for hours but never seems to close. I've also tried BigBox on two different computers but the problem happens there as well. I always have to force close it which I've understood can result in corrupted data if I am unlucky. I am using a custom theme but seems to happen with the default theme as well. Am I alone in experiencing this problem? And more importantly, is there a fix? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro808 Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 This is something that has been happening to some users. Recent updates did rectify it for some users. I still get the random hang up like this. It has been linked in some cases to BigBox themes, at least I believe I saw that in a couple posts. What theme are you using? Also what version LB/BB are you on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I see, maybe I've messed something up then I am using version 10.15 and the theme I am using is based on (but modified by me) Editorial Noir COMMUNITY Project Files version found here. Is there any way to troubleshoot and see what causes the issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not something the user can tweak in a theme and I am not confident it was pinned down to custom themes. It was one of the areas that was looked at. There have even been cases with LB hanging on shutdown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do remember Jason saying something about an issue with the Chromium embedded framework causing some problems. This was something though he worked on in prior betas. There is some information in the beta threads. Some of us has mentioned to the team it still randomly occurs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
