SW center was showing the screen for the app I tried to purchase/install (Command & Conquer Tiberium Alliances). From that screen I clicked "Reinstall Previous Purchases" from the FIle menu. I was presented with a screen asking me to login to Launchpad. I chose cancel instead of logging in to LP. Expected results: I expected to see either the screen I was looking at (the app I was looking at previously) or the home page of SW center Actual results: The main SW center UI was cleared out, no longer showing the screen for my app. Instead it's a blank, grey panel with the large spinning 'wait' cursor (see attached screenshot). It's stuck in this state, and has been for a couple minutes. The app clearly isn't going to do anything on its own, despite the wait cursor. To get SW center out of this state I clicked the "Installed" button then the "All Software" button. The UI is now back to normal. The UI was never blocked, it just wasn't doing anything.
