Everytime I either reboot or shutdown and later turn on my computer I get the message that Chrome didn't shut down properly.
I am using the reboot/shutdown from the Application Launcher (not cli). This persists on both Debian and flavors of Ubuntu. Currently I am running Kubuntu 17.10 (but the problem was also on Kubuntu 17.04). I have tried the following "workarounds", but they do not work.
Unselecting the Continue running background apps when Google Chrome is closed
Placing a script called
K99-close-google-chrome
(with+x
permissions) in both the/etc/rc0.d
and/etc/rc6.d
folders#!/bin/bash killall chrome sleep 5 exit 0
I see posts dating all the way back to 2012 of this being an issue and none of them ever have a clear answer. Is there no fix for this problem and if so why? This isn't an issue on Windows or Mac, so why is it on Linux?
