macOS: Closing a native tab window closes the whole app

[elf-is]

Type: Bug

I am using multi tab option of MacOS and recently when I try to close a tab the app shuts down and when I reopen it the window is still there.

Edit: Now I tried closing it while being on another tab and it worked correctly, the problem only surfaces when I am trying to close the active tab.

This sounds to me that there maybe a native crash going on.

Can you please follow the steps in https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/wiki/Native-Crash-Issues to get at more details around the crash and attach the result here? Thanks!

[elf-is]

@bpasero I followed the steps on that link but the crash didn't happen this time, does that flag stay on in case I got the crash later?

[bpasero]

@elf-is yes it does, at least as long as you do not restart the app without the flag.

[bpasero]

There must be specific steps or specific settings, as I can not reproduce:

[elf-is]

That's probably the case as it didn't occur again in my instance. I'll close the issue and post an update if it happens again.

@bpasero Hi, the problem resurfaced again, and I followed the steps we talked about earlier and here is the crash dump (note that the command created a pending directory when I set the path to home folder)
