Etcher waits for a thread. GUI not showing. Win10

• Etcher version: 1.1.2
• Operating system and architecture: Windows 10 - 64 bits
• Image flashed: No
• Do you see any meaningful error information in the DevTools? No, gui could not be started

When starting nothing is displayed, but it shows in running processes. When analyzing wait threads, it appears that etcher is waiting for a thread in etcher.

I had to restart the machine and use the portable version.

I thought that I had this problem, but while reading this issue, the GUI finally popped up. So it could be that it just takes a reeeally long time on some systems.

I haven’t been able to reproduce this one, I think it requires a somewhat specific configuration, it would be interesting to know if it’s hardware or software

I suspect it is as well, and my question is, why over the last 3 years has there been no indication of anyone collecting detailed information from all the affected people to see if there is a common thread?Also if there is a clear point where it seems to have happened, the above version 1.1.2 works for me, the differences between that version and the next non-working version should be checked.

Are there any frameworks or anything this software uses?

That’s the result when I run it with -disable-gpu

still doesn’t start, but a minor issue is present.
