Research direction
Start by reviewing issue #145, which describes the earlier blank screen and the F5 workaround, then inspect the Windows app startup path for the race condition. Reproduce with SpeakType 2.0.0 on Windows and trace why the initial screen stays blank. Done when the app opens without requiring F5; the issue does not name relevant files or tests.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
What happened?
When I install the windows [release] (https://github.com/karansinghgit/speaktype/releases#release-v2.0.0) and open the app it shows a blank white screen. While I went through an old [bug] (https://github.com/karansinghgit/speaktype/issues/145) and identified this as a race condition. The workaround suggested was to press F5 and it will reload the page, but still this issue should not persist.
Steps to reproduce
- Install the speak type 2.0.0 windows version from the releases page
- Open the speak type app
- It shows a blank white screen
