Closing the EA App with the X

Hello,

When I click the x button in the upper right of the EA app, it minimizes the the window to the system tray. We already have a minimize button, so can we get an option to make the x actually close the app? Right now the x is redundant and its irritating to have to do extra steps to actually close the program.

Thanks

  • @datfrogcurtis Not to mention that most of the time when I go to the part of the taskbar where the app gets minimized to, I right click on the EA App, a window pops up that says, "sign out" and "exit", however it appears behind the menu and the taskbar. Furthermore when it does this almost every time, I'm unable to click on "exit" and "sign out" as its either unclickable, or hidden by the taskbar. Its like the app doesn't like closing.

    Edited: It did it again, here's what it looks like:



    Also, I recently had turned off the setting in the EA App that was allowing background services to still run after the launcher was closed. However when I checked the task manager after completely closing out of the EA App, the "EA Background Services" was still running, despite being set to close out when the launcher is closed.

    Why give us a setting if its going to get ignored?

    I am looking to make the app close when I click x as well. What gripes me is this WAS an available setting bc I have always used it. Now I noticed the setting doesn't seem to be available in any tabs in the settings menu. This is a DEAL BREAKER EA!! I am already fed up with how lousy this game has gotten (will explain in a diff post at some point) and this just might put the nail in the coffin so to speak. It is MY computer, and I should not have to go roundabout ways in order to close an app.
