[SOLVED] Game's not exit and some [REVIEW]
[SOLVED] Game's not exit.

When we're exiting the game from steam (even when we closed the steam), the game is still running.
We have to end it from task manager.

However, the game's names in task manager are often unfortunately changing overtime.
So, when you're looking for the games, these are the list that I found:
1. Popcapgames1.exe
2. WINTS.exe
3. Typersharkdeluxe.exe
(Maybe anyone can add the names in the future.)

Search for those word when you're in the task manager.
And end task the game.
If it is worked, the typer shark deluxe's name with 'running' on the steam will be disappeared.

[REVIEW]

I played this game back in 2006-2009 (got this game from random mailing list) and trained until I can type with 10 fingers (maybe 200-hours worth of playing game) without looking the keyboard until now, got respectable 85+WPM.
However. for now, there are better typing education games and you can look for it outside of Steam for free. I just buy it now for appreciating it, feeling nostalgic, and remembering my past life.

Thank you Pop Cap Games for making this game.

You're welcome. Hope you enjoy this game as this is the best typing experience game back at 2006. Still good for fun nowadays.

You could try typingclub.com. It's web-based game, however filled with many courses from new beginner to advanced.

The game does not exit and cannot be terminated by steam - problem is still present, it is [NOT SOLVED]; also the Adjusted WPM calculation is incorrect... WAPM = WPM - (errors / time_converted_to_minutes)

[NOT SOLVED] -- Experiencing the same issue. You can quit game but then if you go to your Steam library it has a blue button that says XSTOP and does nothing. Task manager is a PITA.

Anyone have a real solution?

I don't experience XSTOP. Only what I've said on first post that most people facing on playing Typer Shark via Steam.
