Hello, could you try File/Quit or right click on the tray and exit ?

[eric-peterson-usps]

@benoitf both of those worked but shouldn't Quit Podman Desktop also do the same thing?

[benoitf]

@eric-peterson-usps you're correct on the issue, just wanted to check workarounds.

I don't want to open a new issue yet before first asking here, but in the most recent stable and latest nightly/test builds on macOS 12.6 I'm unable to quit the application at all. So far, I've tried:

• Podman Desktop menubar entry -> Quit Podman Desktop
• Menubar icon -> Quit
• Dock icon right-click menu -> Quit

And while they all close the Podman Desktop application Window, none of those options closes the application itself. The only way I'm able to close the app (and remove the dock and menu bar entries) is by using Force Quit on the dock icon.

Hum... Sorry you are facing this issue. I can't reproduce it, either with the latest release (0.9.1) or the latest nightly. (and I'm also on 12.6) All the option you mentioned, they are all properly exiting the application (the Podman Desktop process does not run anymore). What is the status of your "exit on close" option? (in settings > preferences) tings)

Update: a second reboot appears to have resolved the issue. Everything now works as it should:

• Quit options in all 3 locations
• Window close button (as configured in the preferences)

My apologies for wasting your time with this. Your prompt response was much appreciated!

~Thanks for the quick response! I did some additional testing by deleting both Podman and Podman Desktop (and any associated configuration files) and completely starting from scratch. After installing both Podman and Podman Desktop again, prior to using Podman Desktop to initialize a Podman machine, all the quit options work as expected. The preference to quit when using the close button on the Podman Desktop window works as well.~

~However, initializing Podman (using the Toggle in Podman Desktop) remains stuck on "Initializing... Please Wait...". When checking in the terminal with podman machine list, the required podman-machine-default instance has been created and is up and running.~

~From that point onward the quit issue is present. I need to force quit Podman Desktop to break out of the stuck initialization process and after a full system reboot, the Podman Desktop application quit issue remains present.~
