MM still running in task manager Windows 11 after closed [#19260]

Post by gumballpro »

Hi, after closing Media Monkey, using latest version on Windows 11, program still running in task manager. If I try and open program again, nothing happens. When I go to task manager, I can see an instance of MM for each time I tried to open the program running in the processes window. I don't see a start up option in settings, and also noticed a grayed out Media Monkey icon in the system tray. Not sure what that is supposed to do, or why it is there.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled program. Same results. A restart terminates all instances. But wanted to see if there is a fix.

Thanks!

Which Build (Help > About) of MediaMonkey are you using?

Note that MediaMonkey 4 has not been tested at all with Windows 11.

5.0.3.2627

Might need to address this. I can’t be the only one with this issue. 11 is out there now.

Maybe it has to do with the helper application? Seems like when I kill that, I do t have any issues.

You didn’t even mention anything about the grayed out Media Monkey icon in the system tray. What is that supposed to do?

This just started happening to me, also. However, I'm on Windows 10 MMW5 build 5.0.3.2627.

Hi, sounds like https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=19260 that has been already fixed for 2658, but the new build hasn't been posted yet.

Please subscribe this thread: https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewt ... 86639&sd=d to get notified once the new build is ready and re-test whether the issue is resolved for you.

Thanks!
