Debugtron appears to hold open .asar file

I reported signalapp/Signal-Desktop#5426, but the issue turned out to be with Debugtron.

Basically, it looks like Debugtron is opening the Signal app.asar even though I've never used Debugtron with Signal. This interferes with Signal's ability to update. I understand that Debugtron wants to open this file in order to populate the installed apps list, but it should close the file once it's been read. The current behavior is quite counterintuitive, since I have no reason to think that simply having Debugtron open (without ever having it interact with Signal) would affect Signal's behavior.

@cg505 Is this Windows-OS related?

This is happening on Windows 10. I'm not sure if that answers your question.
