EA 906 disappears no crash.

One of the most frustrating things to verify is where a program disappears with no crash message. Sometime you cannot be sure you did not click on the close button by accident
(hence my feature request suggestion).

However it is clear to me now that EA 906 is failing without any warning at all.

Fortunately this is confirmed by the system error log

Are you seeing this as well?


And what was I doing.
At the time I had selected a contents of a note in a docked notes window and had clicked for the context menu.
After a pause EA just vanished.

I eventually experience this kind of message. It seems to be somehow connected to the position of the moon, the weather and a few more undetermined parameters. I simply ignore it and restart EA since it is not reproducible - bug report meaningless. The good thing is that (except for recent diagram changes) nothing gets lost. Feels a bit better than in old blue-screen-days.

Hi,

i noticed this three times since 25.5 start of build 906.

On two different systems with different OS (WINXP, WINXP on virtualbox, WIN7) but only once per System

It felt like a wanted program closing but was not initiated.

On VMWARE i haven't got any special error logged and it was also like a requested program closeing
