Rust Runs In The Background After Exit

[PixieTreatz]

Some reason whenever I close the game and exit out completely it will still be running in the background if you look at task manager. When it's doing this it causes a lot of issues with my computer's performance.

Since last update, me too, whenever I close the game Steam says that Rust is still running even though I can't find anything in the Task Manager. I need to kill Steam in memory and restart it again...

Same here, it always likes to crash my steam :(

happens in other games as well ... not only rust

Ok, I found something interesting...

For those of you (as me) with Windows 10, maybe the culpit is the "System" process taking precious CPU time... I found out that this process was eating 40-50% of my CPU without good reason and my fan was running louder. I restarted my computer and the process was back around 0.1-0.5% of my CPU. I tried running Rust and after I closed it, my Steam didn't told me that it was running anymore!

It seems that, whatever the process is doing, it's stopping Steam to know when a game is gracefully closed...

I hope it can be helpful for anybody!
