Non-existant windows?
Whenever I'm in game, and I alt-tab somewhere else it opens another window of Shapez, like a clone. But when I close the game the clone windows stay there and I can't close them. Don't know which program it is in Task Manager but it's not a toll on any hardware. What do I do?
I'm on Windows 11

I have this problem too. Haven't resolved it.

Same here.
You probably won't need it anymore, so it's more for others looking for an answer in the future.
You can close all these windows by restarting Windows Explorer using Task Manager. To prevent this from happening again, you need to disable full screen mode.

Anyone know if shapez 2 has this bug? It's really annoying (restarting Explorer has too many side effects to be something I want to do each time I take a game break ^_^), and I think I'd only buy the sequel if this is fixed...

Unfortunately disabling fullscreen isn't a great option (that also disables / makes impractical scrolling near screen edges which is the only convenient way I've found to lay long belts). If anyone else finds another workaround, I'd love to hear though! I might just try writing something to kill any windows named "shapez" with dimensions of 0x0...
