Obsidian 1.12.4 Clean Installation Shutdown Very Delay Bug Report

Bug reports
1

I have encountered a strange issue with the latest Obsidian version 1.12.4.

If I perform a clean installation of version 1.12.4 directly, instead of upgrading from version 1.11.7, after the installation is complete, closing Obsidian becomes extremely slow — it takes at least 3 seconds or longer, which never happened before.

However, if I upgrade from 11.7 to 1.12.4, the shutdown speed is normal and there is no such delay.

I usually prefer clean installations, so this issue is very disruptive for me.

Additionally, Windows Security has flagged a warning about an obsidian.com process, indicating a severe potential risk. I suspect this is related to the CLI included in this update. Even after granting full security permissions to this program, the slow shutdown issue still persists.

Please look into this issue and provide a fix. Thank you.

Additionally, the image resizing feature is currently not working properly. The drag arrow appears and you can drag it, but the image size does not change.

As a workaround, go Setting->Appearance->Window Frame Style->Select Native restart Obsidian.

We will investigate this problem.

We figured that this was caused by an upstream electron bug.

We rebuilt 1.12.4 for windows with an older Electron version that doesn’t have this bug.

For anyone affected, just download and reinstall obsidian from the website.
