We run into some BackingStoreException: Couldn't get file lock. e.g. here :
[JShell] Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException: java.util.prefs.BackingStoreException: Couldn't get file lock.

[JShell] ... 4 more
The BackingStoreException should be enhanced e.g. by adding the errno/errorCode that is already available in the coding
