Hi,
yes I have had instances where I have accidentally caused a fault with Mach that requires I shut it down. While some
parts of Mach do shut down, other parts do not, and thereafter it necessary to use Task Manager to shut it down.
The issue is what is causing Mach to fail/run slow in the first place? If you prevent that from happening then the restart
problem ever arises.
My understanding is that if a fault occurs in Machs core, something like an infinite loop, then the GUI will shut down but not
the core.
