I did not understand what you say

I usually CTRL+SHIFT+ESC and go through the processes to find the one that belongs to whatever is stuck and force it to End Task

That's more of a cure than a means to prevent what's happening though, something's wrong with either the game or more likely your system if that happens regularly.

I try to exit game and it freezes the screen when i click exit to main screen. I have to hit power on desktop which puts cpu to sleep if theres programs running, when i wake it back up i can see my desktop screen instead of frozen "grim dawn" (game) screen.. it still says on steam that grim dawn is running, so i cant open any games or close steam until grim dawn closes. but i right click the icon and hit close window, but it dont work.
Does this happen to other users?

my computer is only 2 months old, and spend 2000 dollars, hopefully the error is in the game files somewhere, heheh.

Doesn't have to be hardware related, it could be driver related, make sure you keep everything up to date, graphic/soundcard drivers etc. Something may be conflicting.

As suggested above use task manager to end it.

I only experience these issue when my HDD is failing

I recently purchased a game and played it for a few minutes before exiting it.

After doing other stuff for a few hours I opened Steam again.

I had 3 cards from the game.

It was still running even though I had exited the game hours earlier.

I actually couldn't close the game even after shutting down Steam from the task manager.

On rebooting Steam the game was still running.

A PC reboot shut the game down.

NB There was no game listing in the Task Manager that was running :bfangry:

:tgrin:

Usually for issue like this ppl will check that specific game forum
