Exiting game in Itch app doesn't close the close the game completely

Someone reported that the itch app is continuing to act like my game is "running" even after the player has exited it. It also seems like it's possible to open multiple instances of the game because of this.

This is the game it's happening on: https://laikaproj.itch.io/poweroften

Any ideas on why that might be happening?

Which platform is this happening for? Does your game spawn subprocesses?

It happen on Windows (confirmed on 10 and 7).

I'm not sure I know what a subprocess is... what is an example?
