App will not restart when required and document is opened

[ttl]

In case that document is opened (no matter if changes are saved or not), any of Affinity applications (v2.3.1, win 10) will not restart when in application Settings is changed any parameter which requires a restart (for example changing "Language" or switching "Enable Pointer Support") and user confirms to restart in a dialog box. App only closes an opened document and quit itself. No restart happens.

If no document is opened, app quits and restarts as expected.
