the same problem happened in the past #1601
Do you have a stack trace of the crash?
I can verify the bug. Annoying as hell. Lost a day of work.
By the way, v1.0.45 is a bad release (#3177). Please revert back to 1.0.44. What you're seeing could be related to the infinite rendering caused by the bug in v1.0.45.
@dicksontsai doesn't help. See also: https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/3272 . Problems started yesterday at around 21:00. Since then it is impossible to do anything. Claude just opens and freezes.
Same here. I've opened https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/3282 because I suspected a memory leak.
Downgrading to 1.0.44 seems to be working for me. Check here or just run
