Roblox Studio sometimes becomes unresponsive after ending a playtest

Summary
A recent issue has started to occur sometimes where Roblox Studio becomes unresponsive and stops doing anything after I end a solo playtest. I have been experiencing this issue repeatedly, causing me to have to exit out and open the application again and sometimes losing my work because I had not saved right before playtesting.

Expected Results
Roblox Studio should return to the normal editing state after a playtest is ended.


^ Screenshot showing how the application looked after I resized the application. This is its unresponsive state, where the application is not hanging as “not responding” but instead does nothing at all.

^ Oddly enough, pressing the X button to close the application still makes the exit confirmation popup appear, but I am unable to press the buttons on it as well. Pressing the X button will not close Roblox Studio and ending task via Task Manager is required to do so.

^ Another weird thing to note is that I was able to actually save my work in this unresponsive state by using the Control + S keybind, and the output also updated to reflect this. I just discovered this.

Final note: after reopening Roblox Studio, it installed an update. I don’t remember if this occurred every time.

Despite being on Linux via. a bootstrapper Wine application called Vinegar, I can confirm this is happening to me as well.

I was also still able to save whilst everything being frozen.

Apologies, didn’t notice previous bug reports had already been made.
