In my opinion, pgadmin3 is almost stable with win8 and win10. Except the earlier mentioned connection problem. Pgadmin
alwayscrashes, when changing the network connection.

I'd like to note that 1.22.1 works rock stable for me on windows xp, and I use it almost every day, sometimes
continuouslyfor hours, and not a single issue whatsoever since it was released. I can compare this to (if memory
serves)1.16 crashing for no apparent reason routinely and
1.18-1.20 having nasty issues with redrawing sql-code panels causing Windows to go crazy.
I'd suppose that the main problem is wxwidgets. Either bugs in the interaction of pgadmin code with wxwidgets or bugs
inwxwidgets itself.
And wxwidgets is not so easy to deal with. However, wxwidgets 3.x looks still somewhat alive, so it might make some
sense(for a motivated user) to try to fix problems. In a usual way: recompile-reproduce-debug-patch.
An important caveat: with wxwidgets, when you fix an issue e.g. for Mac, you often break something at least for 1 other
platform.Thats the joy of wxwidgets. Anyway, its very time-consuming.
Official pgadmin3 development was quite clearly announced discontinued, but maybe Dave would still accept good quality
patchesfrom creative users for some time...
