My Motherboard audio driver requires me to use Nahimic and its really buggy software. I was messing around with some settings and once i increased my mic boost to max and closed the app, after opening it again it was stuck in loading. I waited for few mins but it was still stuck so I rebooted my PC, doing that fixed Nahimic and is working fine.

So far i haven't noticed any problem but i'm worried that because it was stuck in loading, it might have caused some corrupted file or anything similar.

Should I be worried about this even thought it is working normally? Are Windows application this easy to break?

Uninstalling and reinstalling this application isn't an option because it's extremely hard to uninstall, If I want to then I also have to uninstall Realtek audio driver and delete many registry files which is kinda scarry for a PC newb. There are many post about how hard it is to completely uninstall this app.

Should I just ignore the fact that it was stuck in loading since it's working normally right now?

I posted the same question in MSI Forum and got this response

"It happens to me sometimes. What you can do instead of restarting is stop the Nahimic service, end all Nahimic processes running and restart the Nahimic service."

It's all about quality and how much time the publisher have spent on that. Maybe they've spend very little resources and mostly focused on a glory UI. Compare it to a car made of cookies, it runs for a little while then beaks apart.

If the computer doesn't have other issues, then it is the hard shut down that will cause corrupted files. E.g. if you're in the middle of working on a document and haven't saved for a long while, that work may be gone when the system freeze.
