BigBox freezes when exiting the new Halo Campaign Evolved

[Jabb3rJaw]

Just like the title says. None of my other PC games causes Bigbox to freeze when exiting just this one. I go back to Bigbox when I exit through the game back to desktop but Bigbox is frozen. I tried clicking my mouse to regain focus but nothing works? Anyone else run into this or know a solution?

Startup/Shutdown has been overhauled in the 13.28-betas.  Not sure if it'll fix the issue with this one game.

Improvement: Improved startup/shutdown app handling and switching between LaunchBox and Big Box

You can opt into the beta releases under Tools < Options < General < Updates (if you so desire to test and provide feedback).  Or wait for the Official release.  I don't know the ETA for the 13.28 Official release.

Sorry should’ve mentioned I’m running the newest beta. I guess I thought it was more of a problem with this games exit than the beat since all my other pc games exit fine.

Ah Ok.  Sounds like it may be the game then.  Is it a stand-alone exe? Or are you running it through Steam?  Is it only in Big Box this happens? Or does it cause issues when ran through LaunchBox as well?  If you have startup screens enabled for it, can try turning them off [for process-of-elimination testing].

To clarify, when you say "exit through the game", you're exiting through the games' Menu?  Vs. exiting using Big Box's controller mapped Close the Active Window.

Thanks Joe. I will try through Launchbox but yes this is a stand alone exe happening in Bigbox when I exit through the games menu.

Forgot to mention when this game closes I don't see the new shut down screen in the latest beta saying something like exiting game I believe. It just goes to the wheel then freezes.

Halo gets stuck in Launchbox also so its probably just the way the game is exiting?
