Windows: Fladder hangs on startup after aborting Auth Link login #1041

Description

Description

Environment

  • Fladder: 0.10.3
  • OS: Windows 11
  • Portable version

Steps to reproduce

  1. Start Fladder.
  2. Open an authentication link (fladder:///login?authLink=...).
  3. The login dialog is displayed.
  4. Close Fladder before completing the login (without entering the password).
  5. Launch Fladder again.

Expected behavior

Fladder should either:

  • return to the login screen, or
  • discard the incomplete authentication state.

Actual behavior

Fladder becomes unresponsive immediately after startup ("Not Responding").

Workaround

Deleting or renaming:

%APPDATA%\DonutWare

allows Fladder to start normally again.

Additional notes

The issue appears to be caused by an incomplete authentication state being restored on startup.

I can reproduce this consistently.

I initially suspected customCacheKey.json, but deleting the whole %APPDATA%\DonutWare directory consistently fixes the issue. I haven't yet identified which specific file stores the incomplete authentication state.

Reproduction steps

1. Start Fladder.
2. Open an authentication link (fladder:///login?authLink=...).
3. The login dialog is displayed.
4. Close Fladder before completing the login (without entering the password).
5. Launch Fladder again.
