Shutingdown with Mach3 running makes XP hang
« on: January 22, 2020, 02:24:53 PM »
Hello.
Whenever I try to power off the machine by using power button or start menu while Mach3 is still running, the software will close but the system won't shutdown, or let me do anything else. I'm left with Windows XP desktop, mouse/keyboard works, but can't open any app or actually shutdown the system. This does not happen if I close Mach3 first and then shutdown, is this intended ? Is there any workaround, so I don't have to do it ?
I'd appreciate any help. Thanks.

The problem is that Mach 3 elbows Windows out of the way when its running.  Fundamental to the architecture, just live with it.
