Certain computers unable to close app

[joe fission]

This is a crazy little problem, and I am not quite sure where to start
looking.

This VB.Net app will run fine on two of my computers (which are very
similar), except after moving from one form to another, one of the
computers refuses to close the app (even in design mode). The only
significant difference is one is Intel and the other AMD. After that,
I am not quite sure what I am looking for.

Thanks for any help or pointers. Cheers.

joe,

I assume by 'Design Mode', you are referring to debugging?

What code or mechanism are you using to close the form?

Quite simply, just clicking the big red 'x' in the top right corner.
The computers
won't close the app are consistent.

I should also say that after an attempt to close the app, it will
still continue to
run as though nothing is wrong.

joe,

Is there any code to handle the ApplicationEnd or FormClos[ed|ing] events
that might be short-circuiting the default closing behavior?

In the end, all I did to fix this one was to add Application.Exit to a
menu click event.

The app still won't close on clicking the 'x' in the top right, but at
least now the app can exit gracefully.

Thanks for your input.
