      Every time I try to quit and save my world on the Switch, there's a good chance that the game will crash with the error message "The software was closed because an error occurred." I can't say exactly what I'm doing that causes this to happen while other times, it does not. However, it's starting to get very frustrating since when this happens, my world usually rolls back a few minutes and I'm left having to go in, restart the game (which takes at least 5 minutes for me) and then redo what was logged back. All I can do then is hope the game saves correctly.

      If it's any help, I have also had this error crash my game at other random times. And when I say random, I mean it. There's no correlation of when this happens. It happens in all worlds, all chunks, etc.

      I believe I started having this issue with 1.13 and has continued with 1.14, 1.14.1, and 1.14.2.

      It's getting very frustrating as a Switch player and I hope this crash can be resolved soon. Thanks.
