Community-edition: Rambox freezes when displaying notification in windows 10

Created on 18 Sep 2016 · 9Comments · Source: ramboxapp/community-edition

When rambox displays a notification using windows 10 action center, Rambox's UI freezes completely. The program is still running in the background because a sound is played when a notification is received.

Setps to reproduce : Connect to any service that uses windows 10 notification tray, receive a notification displayed on screen. Rambox then freezes completely.

Preventing the service to show notifications seems to prevent the problem.

Rambox 0.4.2
Electron 1.3.5
win32 x64 10.0.14393

In my case, I use the same environment and works ok for me.

Can anyone confirm this please?

I can make some tests, but who service is using windows 10 action center?

I mainly have this problem with Slack.

Edit : Skype is causing problems too, if it can help.

I've been looking into it, Whatsapp has the same problem.

Edit : the developper tool crashes as well when there is a notification, I'll try reinstalling.

@L3nn0x Because of your problems, it should be an Electron bug.

Reinstallation didn't help. Should I contact Electron instead then?

Before contacting Electron, please check if Rambox is consuming a lot of CPU and RAM, if so please read #366 and follow the lasts instructions in last comments.

Seems like spoofing the tooltip.io domain name does the trick.

Thanks a lot.
