Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Frans Slothouber (rfsber)]

I got this bug while trying to reproduce another bug ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bamf/+bug/926208 ).
Did this by opening System/Setting and then very quickly opening the various icons and then closing the windows that appear by clikcing on all settings, or when windows pop up by clicking on the cross.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

The bug hasn't seen any activity in years and there has been no recent similar reports, the code also changed quite a lot since and it's likely the issue doesn't exist anymore. Closing, feel free to open a new report if you still get problems in recent Ubuntu versions
