Open

Description

@CapyKkuing

What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?

Version 26.623.61825 • Released 2026. 6. 29.

What subscription do you have?

codex

What platform is your computer?

Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.26200.0 x64

What issue are you seeing?

The Codex app abruptly terminates and closes unexpectedly. The crash appears to be caused by an infinite rendering loop within the internal webview, accompanied by a failure to properly recognize or load the local file directory. In some instances, this might also be conflicting with system processes like Windows Defender or administrator sandbox settings.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Feedback ID: 019f09f9-9d46-7973-b0dd-3ca800d1d942

What is the expected behavior?

The app should successfully recognize the local file directory and render the webview normally without freezing, looping infinitely, or crashing.
