Spyder Terminal Cannot Restart/White Screen #348

Description of your problem

Spyder terminal displays white screen.
What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Launch Spyder
  2. Click + or x in the terminal pane

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When I launch Spyder for the first time the terminal loads correctly and it is functional. However, I cannot use the + button to open a new terminal. If I do so, a white screen is displayed in the terminal and it is not responsive. The same also happens when I click the x button to reset the terminal.

Please provide any additional information below
Using the task manager I observe that whenever I click x or click + and close the terminal the total number of processes goes up by 1 and never decreases. I think for some reason the terminals are running in the background but not actually shutting down when closed in Spyder.

Versions and main components

  • Terminal Version: 1.2.2
