Recover a missing window

Bring: App name and symptom.

Bring: The symptom.
Expect: Measured consumers and options.

[App] won't quit. Find exactly which process is holding on and fix only that.

Bring: The app and symptom.

[App] started failing after [event]. Triage the problem and choose the smallest recovery step.

Bring: The app and source.
