When this occurs, you can see the "background" copy displayed in Task Manager immediately after closing Drake. The problem is caused by the Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 operating systems, which may hold a program open in the background for a short time after you close it, in a kind of cache, to improve system response times. It is less likely to occur if you regularly close Drake from the Home window using the X button at the top right, rather than closing at the task bar. This problem can occur in any version of Drake running under Windows 8.1 or 10.
