When the target process exits, _check_process_alive disables the scanner via set_busy(True). Changing to a new live process did not reset that state, leaving the scan controls disabled against the new target. Reset set_busy(False) in _change_process so the controls re-enable.

Problem
When the target process exits,
_check_process_alivedisables the scanner controls by callingset_busy(True)("operations disabled"). Switching to a new live process via File → Change Process… updated the badge, cleared results, and rebuilt the cheat table — but never reset the busy flag. As a result, the scan controls stayed disabled against the new target.Fix
Reset
self._scanner.set_busy(False)in_change_process, alongside the existing results/snapshot reset, so the scan controls re-enable for the new process.This also covers the general case: every process switch now guarantees an unlocked state.
