nvALT crashing

[eustist]

Hi, I have a new MacBook Pro, running 10.12.6 Sierra. nvALT has been crashing randomly. is this just me or is it a known issue and is there a fix in the works, please?

thanks

I've been noticing this too. I didn't catch the alert window the last time but it thinks multiple versions of the app is running and can't detect changes in the notes.
