When I click on the Reconnect button in the dialog box that appears when I lose connection during Team Create, Studio will often crash after reconnecting and the output window will contain QT errors.
This happens consistently for me, but the first time I attempted to reproduce it, it took two tries.
I am using Windows 10, two people I had repro this were using Windows 10.
I had one friend try this on Windows 8.1 and this did not happen.
To reproduce:
Open a Team Create session
Via Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections, disconnect your Internet
Wait for Studio to disconnect and show the above dialog boxes
Reconnect your internet
Click OK on the disconnect dialog box (first one) in Studio
Sometimes Studio will close to desktop and display a rapidly flickering persistent dialog box
Click Reconnect in the reconnect dialog box (second one) in Studio
Studio will reconnect to the game and sometimes crash immediately afterwards, the output widget will contain QT errors
For some users occasionally instead of showing the two dialog boxes, Studio will completely close to desktop after clicking OK on the first Disconnect box in the above screenshot, and show a rapidly flickering / reopening dialog box that doesn’t go away. This does not happen to me.
I don’t know when it started happening, but there was a related bug report in Post Approval 12 days ago.
I can definitely confirm, this was happening to me yesterday and I ended up restarting my computer to get rid of the problem. I tried using task manager to close it, however because the process repetitively started up and closed extremely fast, it was virtually impossible to do so.
I have to deal with this issue every morning using task manager to shutdown the flashing windows.
Today - it sounded like an alarm was going off in my room because windows spams the popup sound ~5 times a second with this bug. It’s now crashing my PC, everything running 5fps, and a restart is the only way to fix this.
Edit: The windows are flickering so fast that they appear to not flicker in this video. But in reality - those popups are flashing
The flickering popups were draining my PC to nearly 1 FPS (on a good processor) and when trying to kill it in task manager, the tasks kept jumping and I’d kill the wrong tasks by misclick!
Usually you can use task manager to kill these tasks but today it was worse and required a restart. I shouldn’t have to restart my PC in the morning due to studio - which is why I bumped this as critical.
