local Scan = createMemScan(false)
Scan.firstScan(1,2,1,"12345678",nil,0,0xFFFFFFFFFF,'',0,nil,true,true,false,false)
Scan.onScanDone = function()
Scan.destroy()
end

Came across this while trying to make sure I cleaned up after executing. I haven't tested it with all types, but for at least dwords this causes CE to freeze seemingly indefinitely. 6.4 64

don't destroy it in scandone as it has other things to do after the scan has finished (like returning to the thread that called onScanDone, which is why it's deadlocked)

you can launch a timer thst destroys it, or just leave it and reuse the memscan object for next scan

you can also just wait till it's done. E. g. in a thread you created yourself so the GUI isn't affected
