This is fine.  I just wanted to make sure I had a "fresh" one.

I have seen it when closing an instance of Visual Studio (outside of
the CMake plugin), but I can't seem to get it to crash unless I've
used the plugin sometime in the past.

I usually have to kill it through the task manager, because it gets
stuck in some strange state after it shows me the error dialog.

At least once today, and several times of the past while.  It doesn't
seem to help.
