What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

Using Dolphin Development version 2512-241, attempting to exit the program itself results in Dolphin freezing, becoming unresponsive, and having to crash out or kill in task manager. Many settings such as graphical settings, (or in my case, Triforce IP settings) will get lost during the freeze/crash, and have to be re-entered again.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

I can understand this may not happen to everyone, but in my case, simply opening Dolphin and attempting to close it will result in the freeze.

Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

Yes as of yesterday, version 2512-421. I can see a couple more versions have released since then, but no notes about this crash being fixed.

Is the issue present in the latest release? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest release.

Not sure, untested. Was interested in the Triforce features.

If the issue isn't present in the latest release, which is the first broken version? (You can find the first broken version by bisecting. Windows users can use the tool https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-green-notice-development-thread-unofficial-dolphin-bisection-tool-for-finding-broken-builds and anyone who is building Dolphin on their own can use git bisect.)

Not sure, untested. Was interested in the Triforce features. However, other users (as seen on Reddit) experienced the issue in 2509. They suggested a rollback to 2506 resolved the issue for them.

If your issue is a graphical issue, please attach screenshots and record a three frame fifolog of the issue if possible. Screenshots showing what it is supposed to look like from either console or older builds of Dolphin will help too.

Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)

According to a Reddit post on the issue, several factors were mentioned that may have contributed, including:

• Bluetooth controllers, or bluetooth being toggled on at all at any point.
• Xbox controllers specifically, and making sure everything on the Xbox side is updated (drivers, etc).
• Using the "Always Connected" checkbox when configuring the controller.

However, for me, I am not using bluetooth, I am not using an Xbox controller, and toggling the "Always Connected" checkbox on or off did not resolve anything.

I am using a PlayStation flavor T300RS for my controller.
