As @codebrainz noted on IRC, on windows a network socket at a fixed port is used, not a named pipe as is used on Linux.

I'm not a windows expert, but maybe the spawned command window gets a copy of the handle for the network socket when its spawned, and that keeps the socket in existence after Geany is closed.

But of course attempts to talk to it will probably fail since there is no Geany on the other end and so a new instance will open.

But also do please keep looking for a backtrace for the crash.
