Description

  • Your Hyper.app version is 3.1.4. Please verify your using the latest Hyper.app version
  • [ x] I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate

  • Any relevant information from devtools? (CMD+OPTION+I on macOS, CTRL+SHIFT+I elsewhere):

  • Is the issue reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app?
    I am not sure because I am unable to open to remove the plugins. Though I could try removing plugins from the settings file in a code editor by commenting them out temporality.

Issue

When I downloaded the latest version of 3.4.1 through website or chocolatey the terminal never opens. It's in my task manager but I am unable to access the terminal window anywhere. 3.1.4 works fine.

I have wsl2 with Ubuntu 20+

Research direction

Start by reproducing the missing Hyper window on Windows 10 with Hyper 3.4.1, WSL2 Ubuntu, and the reported ~/.hyper.js configuration, then compare it with 3.1.4. Check whether removing the listed plugins changes the result; done means the terminal window opens and is accessible without remaining only in Task Manager.
