Have to use Task Manager to kill EDO client each time I quit the game-anyone else?

When EDO was released I started to have to use task manager to kill the EDO client each time I quit the game. I never had this problem in any previous version of ED.

When I exit the game the client screen goes black and never closes now. To get it to close I have to kill the client in the process tab of task manager.

This is getting annoying and each time I do this Event Viewer also logs it as an error (Application Hang) and this is also annoying to me.

I have already validated the games files, it doesn't change anything so please don't suggest it since I have tried it and it doesn't help.
Same Problem here. Started a week or more ago. I have an Epic account for my Exploration and it shuts down as it's supposed to. I could be a Steam problem. I don't know.
I do know it give's me the s.
 
Same problem here. It seems to be related to how long you have been logged in, so fine if you are doing the HGE logout to desktop grind every few minutes.
 
Same here, never had this (or at least never enough so i would bother noticing).

After upgrading to odyssey and waiting for a few patch, (didn't start to play it right away because .... well ... cauz ! you know ! potential bugs and weirdness of new mechanics and stuff !), it started happening all the time, 100% of the time i have to kill the process.

Even though the game itself plays flawlessly for me, maybe except a few fps drops when on foot ...
 
On and off, for me it seems to be no pattern...random thing. I used to experience it more frequent before odessey but i did buy a new comp after EDO because my old comp did not even have the HD space for EDO so i upgraded my hardware for EDO.
 
This has happened to 2 times as well OP each time I had msi afterburner watching my temps not sure if its related but hasn't happened since
 
Seeing a previous Remark I left the Black screen an Hour. Still didn't shut down. CTRL-ALT-DEL. Happens every time.
 
My EDH on wine/linux crashes every*single*time on exit with an unhandled page fault. Obviously no black screen, but possibly the same bug. Might be easier to debug there.
 
I had to do it occasionally for as long as I can remember but it's been absolutely every single time since odyssey update 4 dropped.
 
For me this is 2 years old problem, not a single time it closed ok including launcher. But I play on Linux so dunno, I have keybindings "kill all exes" which I press not even thinking about.
 
Yeah same problem. Luckily I use SuperF4, so it's no big deal.
Also after giving it basically my first spin just now, I doubt I'll be playing much, so no big deal in any case.

Yes. Same Here. Otherwise it continues to memory sink.
 
Same here, black screen for about 60% of exits. Also, for some reason, lately the client minimises during the logging-in stage. Weird.
 
I start the main game on Steam. When I take the step via the main menu and then quit the game, the black screen gets stuck less often. Frontier should fix that.

Interesting, i am also using msi afterburner, although only for managing cpu fan speed (keep quiet you GPU !!).

Things are even worse now, after the recent patch : not only graphics are weird and lighting makes cockpits and stations looks like plastic, but ED:O must be shutdown by the task manager and still says it's running ! If i launch the game back from steam after killing the process steam says app is running but with no other process visible in the task manager !

I tried to use the game both as borderless window and fullscreen, with different framerate / fps settings etc but it still won't close, and then it won't even start again if i don't close steam itself ...
