On Windows 7, after following the instructions copied below from hyper-sync-settings, I attempted to close and restart Hyper.
The Windows taskbar icon for Terminal highlights for a bit, then disappears. When I open up Task Manager, I see the amount of Hyper.exe
processes grow as I click to start Hyper.
Even after 5-10mins, it never opens up.
Something interesting, though, is that 4 Hyper.exe
processes start up with just 1 attempt to start Hyper from scratch. I wonder if this has to do with tab startup, as I had unsuccessfully tried to open up a few tabs while it was executing a long task at the start of the day. The restart I had tried above was the first restart I had done since this tab situation.
I feel like either...
- Something went wrong with the hyper-sync-settings install
- Or the failed tabs aren't quite alive enough for Hyper to start
These are the logs I get from SquirrelSetup.log...

If somebody can tell me where any other logs are, I'll happily post it.
