Once you restart MB you can view the error log using the steps I provided. Or with MB closed you can find it in MB's AppData directory and is called ErrorLog.dat.

Any particular reason why you PM'd the screenshot to me. It would be helpful for others to see in order to help figure out your issue so I put the link here:

i can imagine that many playlists could take a long time to initialise. Unforturnately its related to .NET implementation of the menu controls used and I wont be able to solve this. However i will see if the loading can be done in the background so it doesnt freeze the gui
