Have you tried opening the (other) desired book directly via command line?
It may be the book you are attempting to switch to has an issue, and not
saving the current one.
Also, since it is prompting you to save, that tells me something was
edited without a save. Perhaps manually save, then attempt to switch. At
least that should determine if the crash is happening on save, or upon
opening the other book.

Intermittent when changing books using the recent file dropdown list.
I pick the book I want next from the File recent dropdown list.
GnC asks if I want to save the existing opened book. I say yes.
Soon thereafter the program goes away. No stacktrace that I can find.
Start GnC again and it opens the book I was in. Again I pick from the
recent file dropdown. I don't think it asks if I want to save. But I do
get the Lock File dialogue. I tell it to open anyway. It opens.
This happens infrequent and I can't predict when it will happen.
Apparently happens after the lock file is created for the new book but
before it is read into memory.
What steps do I need to take to get additional information the next time
this (apparently random) happens?
