So basically since patch 11, every time I go to quit SC2 , it crashes.

Sure its not game breaking but its rather annoying, cause every time I need to ctrl alt delete and force shut SC2 down, otherwise its stuck on the main screen, anyone else have this problem?

Yeah happens to me too, do you have a mac? cause i do.

I go to the community part then click on the fourms to get me out of sc2 and then just quit sc 2 while it it windowed so that way it doesnt crash.

I have the same problem. Luckily the Ctrl Alt Delete seems to be pretty quick, unlike when other games crash. Do you also not get the opportunity to submit a crash report?

Every single time...
Also when I'm closing sometimes it tells me my C drive is running low on space, then after it closes it goes away. Wtf o_O?

I use Windows 7, in case people are wondering, I sometimes get the opportunity to report a crash report, but sometimes I dont :p

Must have been a bug Blizzard accidently did, prob will get rectified in the new patch, just gonna have to put up with it for now unfortunately.

Windows 7 - 32 bit, either this will happen or my screen will just freeze and I need to Ctrl alt del to get out. Most of the time it's the screen freezing which isn't terrible, just a hassle every time I want to stop playing.

Do Blizzard have test clients for there patches before they are released globally? Bugs like this and that one with the Zerg larva seems really obvious and would stop alot of problem

The Mac client is having the same problem apparently. Until they fix this I need to remember to alt+tab and close SC2 from there whenever I'm quitting. Really annoying =[

Yes, crashes for me all the time. It says Not responding in task manager so I have to end process there.

This has happened to me since day 1, if I choose 'Exit Game' it will freeze on the login screen, and I have to reset my PC (alttab/cad doesnt work), so I just log out then exit the game from the login screen and it works fine! :D

First you need to log out and then quit the game. It works.
