WoW will not exit when closing - remains open in Task Manager

Add me to the list!

Didn’t have issues until today. Was even fine until late last night. Only change today was a very small download/patch

I noticed my fans were going crazy, my memory was 60% - upon closing it was still 60%+ and I found out WoW was still open even though I did exit, and I had to end task through task manager.

Doesn’t start immediately, after 15-20 mins of play is when the fans start going nuts

Memory leak somewhere in WoW

When people try to blame the user/their PC. No, it’s becoming a wide spread issue. It’s a WoW or Battlenet issue
