Sublime Text fails to apply updates if multiple instances are open

Josef il y a 4 mois 0

Reproducible with at least 2 instances of Sublime Text open at the same time (different windows, not different tabs in the same window).


When any open instance of Sublime Text finds an update to install and the user prompts to install the update, Sublime Text will only close the current instance and try to update the application. This leads to a file lock due to the other instances still being open, causing the update to fail and an error to show up. It is expected that before updating the application files, Sublime Text terminates all running instances.

Reproduced on 2024-08-09 on Windows 10, Version 22H2 (OS Build 19045.4561).
