This terminal app crashes and freezes so much.

[stuyy]

No idea what the issue is, I've been using this program for over a year now and while I do enjoy it, there are so many bugs and crashes it's getting to the point where it's unbearable. Sometimes I can't even ctrl + c to exit a process too. I only have 2 plugins installed which are both themes, so I don't know what the issue is?

Here's my config

Can you provide a bit more information like OS version and name Hyper version And any other specifics you might have noticed while facing these issues.

Windows 10 Hyper Version 3.0.2

I've heard about some issues from people using git bash. Can you try the shell and shellArgs from this config.

Thanks, so far no issues.

[stuyy]

Yep, nevermind, same issues.

[LabhanshAgrawal]

You can also try a canary build from the ci, there have been lots of updates since last release

[LabhanshAgrawal]

https://ci.appveyor.com/api/buildjobs/8twctjtffd6949f7/artifacts/Hyper%20Setup%203.1.0-canary.1.exe Try this with the earlier mentioned config

I've been experiencing this too for a while. It tends to happen when I'm trying to kill processes or close the app.
