I have been having problems with catfish for years, but it seems that I am the only one.

xubuntu 18.04  1 gb ram, lots of empty disp space

This afternoon, I made the foolish mistake to try to find files with the word 'groove' in them.  I ran catfish, clicked on file system, clicked on the wheel icon and selected 'find in contents', or whatever.  After a while (I left the computer as I supposed that it would take a while), I came back.  the catifish window was gone.  It still showed in the 'panel' at the top. Maximize did nothing, clicking on the icon did nothing.  Finally after about 1.5 hours, I clicked on 'close', I got the window saying its having a problem closing.  I also had a mousepad text file opened.  All was grayed on, and would not respond.  I tried to close all programs before closing catfish. no luck.  after I closed catfish, then the text file become active, so I could close it.  I reopened catfish, same settings,  same no response, moved to a different screen, played a game of freecell, came back and the screen was blank (with background), but the workspace showed it was active, and the lighter area on the panel was there indicating a program was running.

Is there an alternative?

of what?
