 +Newest bug report
 +<code>Thank you for your response.
 +This bug is still present in
 +
 +- signal app v0.30.0
 +- nwjs 0.20.3
 +
 +Here are the steps to reproduce this issue:
 +
 +- Installation instructions for Ubuntu
 +
 +```
 +sudo aptitude install npm ruby-sass nodejs-legacy
 +cd /tmp
 +wget "https://github.com/WhisperSystems/Signal-Desktop/archive/v0.30.0.tar.gz"
 +tar xvf v0.30.0.tar.gz
 +cd Signal-Desktop-0.30.0
 +npm install
 +node_modules/grunt-cli/bin/grunt -f
 +cd /tmp 
 +wget "https://dl.nwjs.io/v0.20.3/nwjs-v0.20.3-linux-x64.tar.gz"
 +tar xvf nwjs-v0.20.3-linux-x64.tar.gz
 +nwjs-v0.20.3-linux-x64/nw Signal-Desktop-0.30.0/dist
 +```
 +Now the app starts like this

 +So far, so good. Now you have to register to the Signal messaging service. You'll need the Signal app on your smartphone for [Iphone](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/signal-private-messenger/id874139669?mt=8) or [Android](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.thoughtcrime.securesms) (its possible that this app is blocked in China). After installing and registering it on your Phone, you can start linking the Signal-Desktop app: Settings -> Linked devices -> Add, and then take a picture of the QR code which will be shown in the installation wizard on your desktop.
 +
 +Now you can trigger the bug. Close nwjs and Signal and start it again. Normally you should only see the chat window, like this:</code>
