Stuck display process

Technical code : PINUP_DISPLAY_ZOMBIE

What it means

PinUpDisplay.exe stayed running after the last table — it can block the next one.

Why it happens

The backglass display process didn't exit cleanly and stays in memory with nothing using it.

How Pincab Toolbox detects it

The free scanner checks the following:

The PinUpDisplay.exe process is running in memory while no Visual Pinball process (VPinballX/VPinballX64/VPinballX_GL64) is active.
