[.50 Bug] LegendaryHeroes.exe still running after exiting game

from Elemental Forums

After winning my first game of LH, I exited the game and the LH window disappeared.  Shortly thereafter I tried to start a new game, but got this message:

Checking Task Manager, I see that LegendaryHeroes.exe is still running.  It's using about 12% of the CPU, for what, of course, I don't know.  Memory usage, at 1,357,012K, is not going down.  Little, if any, network activity.

Killing it with Task Manager lets me start the game again.

I get this as well.

I've already complained about it. Happens to me about 50% of the time.

Mine was doing that as well, it was due to Steam snycing my saves to its cloud storage. After I turned it off I have not had any problems. That may or may not be the problem the rest of you are having, so I am just throwing that out there in case it might help.

It continues after Steam syncs.

I've gotten this error, as well.  I also get a related error.  When I exit LE, and steam is still running (in offline mode), and I attempt to start LH I get a steam message error "-60" .       Fix is to go and manually close steam, and then let LH restart steam as part of starting the game.

Same here. Eats all my memory :(

 

As a workaround one can kill process in Task Manager.

I think there are some memory hooks the game doesn't let go, even after closing the app. I've had BSoD after exiting and reloading the game three or four times.
