fix(GUI): stop drive scanning loop if an error occurs (#1169)

Browse Source 
If the drive scanning scripts cause an error, the error will be
presented to the user over and over again. Not only this is terrible UX,
which even makes hard to close the application since dialogs keep coming
in, but it also spams TrackJS, our error reporting service, and makes it
seem that errors happened dozens of times, and thus obscuring real
trending errors.
