Hi, I've experienced this intermittent orphaning of jt9.exe, reported by me
in an earlier version. I couldn't find any obvious root cause.
Two suggestions:
1. Put something in the user guide about stopping the orphan process
rather than rebooting the computer?
2. Is there a way of globally trapping fatal errors such that the program
exits more gracefully?
The latter might also assist in finding the fault?
If not directly then maybe run it in its own container so if that sees a
fatal error in its content it can close nicely?

Yes, you were using the executable called jt9.exe. That program
provides the decoding for all slow modes in WSJT-X.
Rebooting is not necessary. Simply use Windows Taskmaster to kill the
still-executing jt9.exe.
A report of program failure is useful only if you can provide details of
what may have caused the crash. Obviously it doesn't happen most of the
time, or we would not have released the beta-test version. If possible,
we need to know what was special about your usage that resulted in a crash.

Hi Dennis,
I use DX Lab Suite and JT Alert and I got a Fatal Error message and also
one that said JT9 failed to close but I wasn't using JT9.
The program just closed and I had to reboot the PC to correct it.
This happened the same as it did on earlier rc versions.
Thanks.

Were you just using WSJT only, or were you using it with N1MM+
Any error messages, or did the WSJT entry window just "disappear"?
