Launcher4Kodi crashing my PC on exit to Windows shell

I noticed that when I exit Kodi to the Windows shell with Launcher4Kodi installed, my PC will crash with a blank screen and the only thing I can do is power it down. This seems to happen only after playing videos in Kodi with Launcher4Kodi installed. If I don't play any videos in Kodi then I can exit to the Windows shell without issues. If I want to go to the Windows shell without crashing with a blank screen after I watched a video in a Kodi session then I must restart my PC and once Kodi is loaded up, go to the shutdown menu in Kodi and click on exit as a workaround but this is unacceptable workaround. I'm using Kodi version 16.1 in Windows 10 Home. I'm using an i3 Skylake NUC as the PC. This does not happen if I don't have Launcher4Kodi installed or if I don't used the Launcher4Kodi shell when running Kodi. The reason I have Launcher4Kodi installed is to try to eliminate interruptions from some Windows background activities while running Kodi.

It happened again. I found out that I did not have to manually power off my NUC and that I can just press Win+Alt+Enter to get back to Kodi when that stuck blank screen occurs upon exiting Kodi to Windows shell so that means my NUC did not actually crash. I tested to see if I can replicate this stuck blank screen issue on my main PC with Launcher4Kodi and it did not happen on my main PC.
