Research direction

No source files or tests are identified. First reproduce the UWP/Xbox freeze by repeatedly launching RetroArch, playing a game, closing it, and repeating for 5–10 minutes; compare behavior before and after restarting RetroArch. Done means the recurring freezes no longer appear after repeated game sessions.
