so I don't know why but when I type ALT+F4 Ubuntu firstly pass to TTY4 and when I go back to TTY7 to login in my previous screen, after entered, it'll close the window (that I was trying to close).

What I would to do is:

  1. Don't pass to any TTY#(except with CTRL+ALT+F)
  2. Only close the window that I'm trying to close;

What can I do? Thanks to everyone!

This bug was reported years ago to the devs team, but it is supposed to be fixed with the latest versions of Ubuntu.

If you're not using russian keyboard, I'd say you could just remove the package console-cyrillic responsible for this, or run this patch.

EDIT: As comments suggest, updating grub with sudo update-grub seems to solve this issue, somehow

    I'm using Ubuntu Gnome 16.04, Kernel 4.4.0-31-generic. It's a new problem, days ago everything was working perfectly.

    Was this ever resolved in chat? I'm having the same exact issue in a new Ubuntu Gnome 16.04 install.

    Well, yes but I can't remember how. Days ago I got the same problem, but unexpectedly solved running sudo update-grub and/or with a reboot. How this help. PS: Times ago, running the above command didn't help
