I am having a strange issue with google-chrome. When I close the browser, there will still be processes running...even though I have the option disabled to run apps after browser is closed:

Also, sometimes when I try to start a browser session the gui never comes up and I have to manually kill all the processes and restart the browser.

I am using

Code:
one@localhost ~/github/ucp $ google-chrome-stable --version
Google Chrome 44.0.2403.130
one@localhost ~/github/ucp $


Anyone know what is going on?

I have noticed this from time to time myself.

I have made a habit of using "Exit" from the menu, instead of hitting the 'x' in the upper right (to kill the window, that's where I have it on gnome).

I believe that using Exit from the menu helps tell the application that you are really done with it, since the 'x' on the frame might only kill one set of tabs, I often right-click on a link and select "Open link in new window". Additionally, some extensions seem to have a life of their own. Hangouts is one that seems to hang around even if you select Exit from the menu. So possibly there is an extension that is not paying attention or is not killed when the main chrome app loses track and decides to quit.

For a while I was in the habit of launching chrome from the command line so I could see if it really quit and I had a prompt when I though I was finished with it. If it was stubborn I would Ctrl-C it or issue a 'killall chrome' from another window.

Sorry I don't have a solution, except I tend to favor Exit from the menu and I kill the Hangouts extension if I am using it.
