Report ID: 387479172

I have been facing repeated crashes since upgrading to Zotero 8.

These crashes happen intermittently when typing in the annotations sidebar. The sequence is usually as follows:

1. I open Zotero and begin highlighting a document in one of my open tabs.
2. I click on "Add comment" in one of the created annotations in the left-hand sidebar.
3. I type out my comment.
4. Sometimes, usually after having made a few annotations and comments, the program hangs and is labeled "Not Responding."

I then have to close the program and restart. Usually, most of the comment that I was typing prior to the crash is missing upon reloading.

Note that the problem does not seem limited to situations in which I have many document tabs open. The most recent crash happened when I had three tabs open alongside the navigation tab.

Any guidance you might have would be greatly appreciated!
  • Did you submit that Report ID after the error occurred and before restarting Zotero?

    If you can reproduce it in Troubleshooting Mode (Help → "Restart in Troubleshooting Mode…”), which temporarily disables all plugins, we'd want to see a Debug ID (different from a Report ID) for doing so.
