Welcome flow no longer blocks app installs with lock timeout
Posted by tomspark
SparkBox 1.6.22 fixes a frustrating race condition that hit new users right after the welcome splash. When you clicked 'Get started', a background container rebuild would lock the operation queue for 10–15 seconds even though nothing actually needed to rebuild. Any attempt to enable Media or other apps during that window failed with 'Another operation is already running.' I've added detection to skip the rebuild entirely when your config hasn't changed—which is the normal case on a fresh install. Now the dashboard returns instantly and you can add apps right away. • Welcome splash no longer triggers unnecessary container recreation • App Store installs work immediately after setup • Operation lock released on fresh installs before dashboard displays Head to the Updates tab in your dashboard to grab this version.
