Restoring a backup over a project that was open (and therefore file-locked) overwrote the project's data and then crashed. Fix it in two places: - RestoreCurrentProject now checks if the project is locked before doing anything destructive (overwriting files). - ExecuteWithAppsShutDown adds a narrow safety net that catches a LcmFileLockedException when reopening. This covering the small window where the project could get locked between the up-front check and the reopen. Any other StartupException is left to propagate so unexpected failures still generate a crash report. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
