Research direction

The issue lacks clear reproduction steps. To proceed, try to reproduce the crash by opening a Java project and closing the application. Look at the crash logs or use a debugger to identify the crash location. Check if any existing tests or previously fixed crashes relate to this. The repository uses C++ and Qt; use that knowledge to trace the shutdown sequence.
