Brave Processes Not Auto Killing After Brave is Closed

[weems]

Brave Processes should be killed after closing to cleanly exit. Important for both Security and Performance. Particularly for Users on Windows who are affected by #1096

[bbondy]

Brave process shoudl be closed in the actual release of Brave (which matches RC 7). Could you try the latest and confirm exact STR?

[bbondy]

This one is more exact of what I see:
#1119

[weems]

I installed 0.8.1 Beta. After running install and launching Brave I closed the window. The processes were still running afterwards.

I also experienced the same thing on Windows 7.

@weems please forget about the pre-release builds of 0.8.1, they had an issue for this and it was fixed. Does the current and live release of 0.8.1 reproduce and if so what are the exact steps?

[bbondy]

For the pre-release if you have processes left over just kill them with the task manager to test fresh.

[weems]

@bbondy I see you have a pre-release fix, but in 0.8.1 Production processes are not being killed. STR is basically close Brave and use 'taskman' to see if processes remain. and currently they do.

[bbondy]

Confused because in Slack around the same time you said the opposite:

confirmed processes are closed after Brave closes in the newest 0.8.1 dev channel on Win7 x64

[weems]

@bbondy at that time I had not yet updated to the pre-release version with the fix for processes closing

[bbondy]

OK thanks, closing this.
