Description
I leave Yomitan running the whole time I'm using my browser, and I usually have the search window open in the background as well - although this issue seems to happen regardless. It mostly seems to happen after my PC has been idle overnight, then when I come to use it the next day it will break like this. But basically I try to shift+hover a word to translate it and nothing happens, then my PC fans come on and I click to expand the search window and am greeted by an all black screen with nothing in it. If I wait for 5+ minutes the issue never resolves. If I open task manager I can see the Yomitan process is consuming like 30% CPU (seems to be all on one thread). I have to kill the process from within Task Manager to get it to stop. It never stops on its own. My browser then tells me "Yomitan has crashed" (because I just killed it) but my browser will still think it's "enabled" and won't let me turn it off (clicking to turn off Yomitan does nothing) so the only way to get Yomitan to run again is to restart my whole browser. This happens about once a week.
Browser version
Microsoft Edge Version 131.0.2903.146 (Official build) (64-bit)
But this has been happening consistently for about 8 months now across many versions.
Yomitan version
25.1.5.0
Exported settings file
(If you think it might be relevant, create a settings export file using the Export Settings button on the settings page and attach it to this issue.)
Love the extension btw. Use it literally every day and this is just a minor convenience. Well worth putting up with for the convenience Yomitan provides.
