While waiting for a certain process to exit, I observed that while the process still exist in the Task manager, Process.HasExited is true, and Process.WaitForExit(0) return false. Any idea why?
This question is different from Process.HasExited returns true even though process is running? because in that question WaitForExit returned true.
{Edit 2}
It seen that the exiting process is throwing exception on global-destruct, maybe causing the debug-dialog to open. (can't see it in my environment, for reasons) so the process is half-dead? Exited but not returned?
{Edit}
CloseMainWindow() is called on the process and then I wait for it to exit. The main window indeed closes. but the process still doesn't exit.
Adding the dump of the object from the debugger Note that signaled is false, haveExitTime is false, ExitCode returns an exception. Just HasExited is true.
