[windows] not stopping process on exit #68

Open SorenAndreasen opened 10 years ago

SorenAndreasen commented 10 years ago

i'm trying to be as specific as i can here guys, but this just happens once in a while. i've tried every possible way of shutting down the program (different windows, exit, "cross" in right corner). sometimes the process: on my windows 7: monome_sum.exe *32 on brians 8: max

just doesn't quit. i've gotten around this by quitting it in the task manager for now.

because it’s essentially a max app, there’s an issue where you can shut the window of the patch but the max runtime shell keeps running. how would you shut it down if it were max proper? do you have to say file/quit or is there some other method?

basically i don’t think we have much control over this behaviour so maybe best not to worry? i’m sure once the patch is shut there is very minimal cpu usage??

sorry i forgot to mention the actual problem with this: i can't open monome sum before i shut down this process

file --> quit shuts all windows down yes in addition to that i can shut down the main window (not the router), which leaves the router window upen.

ok - i don’t think we can do anything to fix this on our end really.

the best option is probably to start an FAQ right away, linked at the bottom of the docs page. let’s document these issues (that we’re not fixing immediately) there.

call it a FAQ or "windows, known issues" ?

i’d lean to faq just because it’s a known phrase / signpost. when people see it they go there to see if their questions are answered??
