Summary0022590: Steam showing game running after it was closed
DescriptionIt happens often that after exiting the game, Steam keeps showing it as running, even after half an hour. I checked all the processes active in the task manager, and none of them is AIWar2.exe. Pressing the big blue "STOP" button does nothing. The only solution is to completely restart Steam, otherwise I can't launch the game again from Steam. Launching the game directly from the .exe works, but after closing it again, Steam thinks it's still open.
Could there be another active processes regarding the game that keeps it "active" for steam?
Is this a Steam problem? For me, it happens only with this game.

Yeah, periodically that happens. I even have it set to explicitly shutdown the steam client, but it doesn't always listen. There's nothing I can really do about that, unfortunately, but typically Valve makes an update to their client and then that stops happening later on.

Since their big revamp of the client it actually had fixed it for me after it happening for like a year, so it's very annoying to see that it's back again. Blah, sorry about that.
