My theory is that it could be possible for the application termination sequence to terminate such that the Media Key hook could get called by the O/S after the application's callback routine is unloaded. (That is my theory, I cannot reproduce it). The result is that the application terminates anyway, so it goes unnoticed. So I have replaced the Low-Level keyboard hook I was using, with a simpler, safer approach using "RegisterHotKey" windows API method. I have also improved a feature some might find useful, that is the mini-player. In the main browser interface, you can open a mini-player by pressing a little button just to the right of the On/Off button. This opens a pop-up window that is the mini-player. Previously, I just allowed the popup provided by the LMS. The size wrong, and I never liked the standard big title bar and the fact that it was white when the mini-player did not have focus. So now, I intercept this call and open a custom version of the mini-browser, with a smaller title bar that stays dark, and is automatically sized correctly. Another change is that pressing "Help" or "Settings" from the browser interface now opens Help and Settings in a regular browser window. I did this in order to provide full browser functionality when working with help and settings, particularly search. All this is in Version 1.2.7, which I submitted to Store today, so should be available in a few days.
