Hello all,
I don't know if this is intended or not, but my Metro apps will only completely close if I use alt+f4 from within the app to close it. If I pull the app down from the top with my mouse, or I go to the switcher, right click, and click close, the only thing that happens is that my Metro apps get removed from the app switcher, and from the alt+tab list. Using the task manager, I can see that they are still there, and still using the same memory that they were before I tried to close them. With alt+f4, they disappear from the task manager and I get back the memory that they were using. Additionally, when I close them with pulling down or the switcher, when I open them again from the start screen it is as if nothing had happened. They still open into whatever state they were in, and the splash screen with the app icon doesn't appear again like it would if the app had actually closed and been reopened.
This definitely seems wrong as all three options to close apps worked in Windows 8, but in Windows 8.1 only alt+f4 works. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
