So this is somewhat of multiple bugs that stem from one overarching issue.

To start off, reproducing this is rather simple.

  • I'm on Windows 11, using Auto-release v0.3.0-rc-2.
  • Install the application, and sign in.
  • Once you've signed in, install a game.
  • Once installed, close the application.
  • At this point, you may think it's closed, but it's in your system tray now.
  • Force close the application from system tray.
  • Reopen the app, and you'll get hit with a "Database Corrupted" error.
  • From here, you have to sign back in to your account.
  • Then you realize the game you downloaded, is now NOT downloaded.

Main fixes in my mind can be:

  • Creating somewhat of a "memory" file that allows Drop to read & realize the games there, are from Drop.
  • Add a toggle in the app settings for "Close Completely" and "Close to System Tray"
  • Not sure about "Database Corrupted" unfortunately.

May be fixed now with the latest database changes (#47). Are you able to test this? I'll get a windows version of the client building

Is this fixed in v0.3.0-rc-3?
