Anyone else having freeze-up problems?

I have version 7.02 on Win 11 and out of the blue and randomly it freezes and won't play an audio file of a song I'm trying to learn. So the workspace is as simple as it gets with just an MP3 file dragged in. The mouse cursor changes to the circular activity icon and although I can execute commands from the menus, there is a long delay (a second or two) between clicking the item and it executing that item.

I'm thinking it may be related to it "phoning home". The last time it ocurred I popped over to my email tool and it took a few seconds to refresh it. But after refreshing I went back to S1 and it hadn't regained it's mind. It's as if whatever anomaly ocurred causes it to latch into an unresponsive state.

While in this unresponsive state, the Task Manager tells me that S1 is using between zero and 1% CPU.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.
