Hang on exit in 2.26, 2.27

Post by KK7ER »

For the past few weeks, on Windows 11, version 2.26 (and later 2.27) hangs on exit. The splash screen message stays up ("Shutting down Log4OM application"). I can close the task bar process using right-click and close window. But there is still a process running (and using significant CPU percentage). I can then kill it in task manager. This is pretty inconvenient. Has anyone else seen it? Is there any fix?

MIke,

Do you have the LOTW "auto upload" feature turned on at: Settings / Configuration / External Services / LOTW ??

If so ... 'un-tic' that option and see if the shutdown 'hang' stops or persists.

Hi Nolan,

Your intuition was correct. If I uncheck the LOTW upload button then the program can terminate successfully. But I really like the LOTW upload feature. Is there any fix or work-around for that?
Thanks!

I was having the same problem. I enabled the "TQSL interactive mode" and it didn't crash anymore. In the previous version (2.26) I never had this problem. :D

Thanks and 73´s - PY5CV Cesar
