How to crash MSP with potential data loss
#1
Not what I was looking for, but that's what I found.

There's a reproducable crash or rather hangup in this situation, which probably doesn't occur to most users, but you probably want to look into it anyway, Mike.

Remember my request for keeping MSP in memory because it keeps reloading after switching to other apps when memory is scarce?

My tablet is still a Sony Xperia Z4 with Nougat and I have a big database, so the reload happens quite often, especially if I stay in the other app for longer.

I was adding songs to a setlist in MSP from a word document I was viewing in another app on the tablet.

If I leave the edit screen before switching to the word app MSP usually needs to reload the database anyway but no harm done here.

If I don't leave the edit screen, switch to the other app and return to MSP, it tries to reload the database but fails. It just shows continually the "loading circle"
you only can escape by leaving the app.

At restart MSP warns that the database is 0 byte and recommends to load the backup.

I always used the backup then and it worked. So no harm done. But if the backup is corrupt or somebody accidentally doesn't use it there could be data loss, right?
