If you are quick enough like me and don't wait icons on home screen to load and settle, if you at the loading icon process will open any plugin and try to play video - something stucks ST to blue screen and you can't open anything and even restarting is not possible. Only power off/on.

I've seen this too, but I can no longer reproduce it... Any ideas?

#4 Updated by Leonid Protasov almost 7 years ago

This happen at all occasions when ST reloads home screen items. For example after ST reboot after update or exit from ST from page menu.

I am able to reproduce that every time if i exit ST via page menu. ST reloads and becomes placing icon on the home screen. If you at this time enter any plugin ST will go bluescreen. To easily reproduce - install also many plugins. That will bring you more time to catch that race...
