Packet Tracer saving a file freezes my computer

[lennartdeswert30887]

Dear cisco members,

After making a topology network in Packet Tracer and trying to save this file my screen freezes, this happens when a suggestion appears, when I for example write a "L" he wants to suggest "Labo..." and then the screen freezes. 

I have found ways around this, using ctrl + alt + F3 to kill the program, or to just use random filenames and change them manually after saving. But I'm looking for a real solution so that I don't have to worry about this sort of stuff happening again.

*Ubuntu 20.04

*Packet Tracer version 8.0.0

Would also post a screen of the error happening but this is impossible for obvious reasons.

Kind regards,

A frustrated student.

I get the same issue on openbox and kde plasma but not on gnome all of them running on Debian 11. also zorin OS has the same issue.

Gnome on both wayland and x11 have no probelm. but openbox (LXDE) and plasma on x11 both freez and i have to switch to a tty to kill packettracer.
