What I meant is that in normal circumstances, without any crash on VFP or without any manually need to kill the task, even if no VFP was in memory, showed in the task bar, I had instances in the task manager. That is something I have simulated several times. From boot, I started VFP, worked in it for about two hours, closed it. Bingo, no VFP showed in the task bar. But, it's in memory in the task list. Unsolved mysteries! :)
