What's the difference between Close Application and Close Window - why does UiPath behave different after one or the other?

Hey!

I too stumbled on this problem. Ironically in the thread you linked someone else answered after you wrote this post:

Dealing with "do you want to save" popup dialog

I haven’t ripped apart the activity for Close Application, but it appears to be force closing the Application process, which would explain why your Click activity selector on the “Don’t Save” is no longer valid, once the workflow continues, it eventually times out.

This describes the behaviour, but leaves me unsatisfied, because there is no documentation about it. I couldn’t find any other topic on the forum and the doc for this activity doesn’t mention this either Activities - Close Application.

Can someone shed some light on this?
