Postman doesn't start - or hangs, with Shared Window open

Open DerekSansom opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

As described on Postman doesn't start - Shared window is not available #5697

Postman stops responding, I have 2 postman windows open, main and collection runner, but a 3rd "Shared" is also there, Shutting down postman and restarting opens a blank window with no content

To Reproduce Wait for Postman to hang then try restarting it

Expected behavior Postman to open cleanly and just work

Screenshots attached with blank window open

App information (please complete the following information):

  • App Type : Native App
  • Postman Version : not sure, recent
  • OS: Ubuntu 20.04

Additional context Rebooting box is the only way I've found of fixing it, and I really don't want to do that each time

Hey @DerekSansom

Would you be able to try our Canary build to see if this unblocks you in the short term and loads the app?

Hey @DerekSansom

Are you still facing this issue on the latest versions of Postman? We have made some improvements recently which should address this problem.
