I have been repeatedly experiencing a bug when closing and opening my Anki. It appears to stay perpetually active upon close and its start up time is nearly a minute and always pops up with an unspecific “there was a problem, might be an add-on”
I have done the troubleshooting before and couldn’t pinpoint it.
I have just recently updated my anki to the newest version (problem has been persisting since long before) and when opening it today, got this debug info:
Anki 25.09.2 (3890e12c) (ao)
Python 3.13.5 Qt 6.9.1 PyQt 6.9.1

I just attempted to restart it and Anki refused to start for a minute but then showed no debug issues. Has anyone experienced something like this before?
