Additionally reproducible with find-and-replace and archive-view:

1. Disable file-icons
2. Enable file-icons
3. Disable file-icons
4. Perform a project search/open an archive

find-and-replace: Uncaught exception should be in console and no project find results should appear.
archive-view: Uncaught exception notification should appear and no archive view should be generated.

The fact that you need to disable file-icons twice for these issues to occur lead me to believe that there may be something wrong going on with package deactivation?

Just an FYI if you're unaware of my current situation: my MacBook died, and my only remaining computer is a dinosaur Dell running OpenBSD 6.2 (which is limited to an 80×25 display due to hardware/driver issues yet to be solved).

So I'm only able to use Atom from borrowed computers, and I've been unable to investigate this (or do most Atom-related stuff, for that matter).
