Comment (by criezy):

 I have created a pull request to remove one of the main cause for this bug
 (saving the state of ScummVM to the config file when it is closed while
 playing a game). Instead the state is saved to a separate file.
 https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/pull/5515

 This does not fully fix the bug, but it should happen a lot less often. As
 written by larsamannen previously, to properly fix the bug and avoid file
 corruption when killing ScummVM while it is writing a file, we will need
 to modify how files are written, to write first to a new file with a
 temporary name, and only when writing has finished we can rename the file
 to replace the old file. Note that in theory this does not only impact the
 config file, but we could be writing corrupted savefiles, so we may want
 to write the fix in a general way for all files that we write.
