chihkang commented 5 months ago

with command Line Tools version 15.1 to build game_porting_toolit correctly. I found even I close steam, it will appear again. I need to kill all process start with wine in activity monitor, then the terminal process could stop with control + c is it correctly ? or I need to follow some other steps I missing?

'Normal' behavior should be:

At this point there should be no left-over processes from steam.

Additionally I had switched off the option "Steam / Settings / Interface": "Run Steam when my Computer starts", so I haven't tested, if that makes any difference.

  • Did that happen right after installation? If yes, reboot and retry again.

'Normal' behavior should be:

  • In Steam GUI select 'Files / Exit' (Alternative: in menu bar, right-click steam icon, 'Exit Steam')
  • The Steam GUI should display "Shutting down Steam", and after 1-2 seconds the processes (including the Icon in menu bar) should terminate.

At this point there should be no left-over processes from steam.

Additionally I had switched off the option "Steam / Settings / Interface": "Run Steam when my Computer starts", so I haven't tested, if that makes any difference.

Thanks for your reply ! I have already reboot when installation . seems like I use wrong way to close steam. It works ~ but if only click Steam's upper right corner X it will loop close steam -> restart steam. Maybe could add some hint at guide 👍
