closed but not gone

Post by vkfoto »

v2024 b6246
After stopping any activities, I close PhotoSupreme
In task manager, the app disappears from the Apps list and now appears in the Background processes.
If I wasn't looking in task manager and shutdown Windows at this point, would the DB be harmed?

Most time is this not a problem. But you should rather look at why the process is still active.

Good point but how would I find that out? Once it is closed, I don't know what it's doing. Like when it becomes unresponsive, Task Manager shows both CPU and Memory values fluctuating but without any information as to what is happening.

How often does it happen? How big is your catalog? How soon after finishing do you check if the process is still running? It takes a while - sometimes around 30 seconds until everything that was still open is closed.

Yes happens for me its never caused a problem, even if you shut down Windows it will take several seconds closing all the other background jobs down before it forces a close.

Every time I close PS.

about 360k and growing. I'm in the process of importing image folders in small groups.

Just noticed recently and now I monitor it as soon as I close PS.

I think you should ask Hert.

Does it also happen if you start PSU, do nothing and simply close it after 1-2 minutes?
