I run Calibre (3.17) on two laptops (both with Windows 10), and the Library for each is stored in a Dropbox folder. On one laptop, when I quit Calibre, it stops running, but on the other, it continues to run in the background. (There's an icon in the notification tray, and I can click that and say "Quit" or "Exit", but otherwise it keeps running.) I'd like to make it quit altogether (without having to do so manually through the notification icon), because otherwise metadata.db doesn't sync properly.

I cannot find any setting anywhere to instruct Calibre to shut down completely when I close it. Any ideas?
