Sometimes with blitzmax apps only explorer gets shutdown and restarts... however sometimes it will never come back unless i restart or relog into windows.

This is only with blitzmax new install or non.

Example: Im working on a project and compile and run a few times over the evening... at some point explorer will be shutdown due to execution of said project ending.

Update: it seems like it is linked to forceing a stop via the ide.

This from memory was why the bi.hwndOwner values were disabled in system.win32.c. In BlitzMax136 this is not the case and I have no idea why it was changed.

It could also be caused by the new dx9 driver using an hwnd of null in an unorthodox manner.

(but its the same for any driver)
