This is so that if you are running multiple instances, whether on multiple PCs, or multiple users on the same machine and the PlayerName was not unique, it will make it unique.
However, If Squeezelite-X terminated abnormally it could have left an instance of squeezelite-win.exe running in the background. So yes, this could be a result of a crash. Version 1.2 added code that eliminated the issue we (well at least I) was having with wifi. Are you running Version 1.2? V1.2 is in the store now and you can update to that (even though the store listing has not yet been updated by Microsoft to indicate Version 1.2 yet, the v1.2 package is what is there). I also noticed this happening (squeezelite-win.exe left running) once when I was shutting down Windows and the shutdown process got aborted due to another program. In that case Squeezelite-X was shutdown, but squeezelite-win.exe was not. I have a fix for this coming. A reboot of the PC should fix the issue because that will shut down any squeezelite-win.exe instances that may be running, or you can go into task manager and terminate the tasks there. (If you do Task Manager, Exit Squeezelite-X first, so you can safely terminate all remaining squeezelite-win.exe instances) BTW, if squeezelite-win.exe terminates abnormally, it may take LMS several minutes to realize and "forget" the player. What version of Squeezelite-X are you running?
