Mystery of the disappearing console
Pathoschild opened this issue ยท 3 comments
Some users report the SMAPI console disappears a few seconds after launch, but the game still runs. One users reports that SMAPI was still in their process manager, ending it crashed the game, and it wrote to the log file as usual.
Known cases:

All reports occur on or after May 8th, when Microsoft released a large update for Windows 8.1 and 10. The update is apparently causing problems for many users, and the SMAPI issue seems to affect both SMAPI 2.6-beta.8 (released on the 7th) and 2.6-beta.5 (released on the 3rd). My tentative assumption is that this is a Windows bug.
