Created attachment 163554 [details] Screenshot of Netbeans main menu item remaining highlighted In Netbeans 8.2 on my mac El Capitan 10.11.6, I can get my Netbeans into a state where it won't quit. How to Reproduce: 1. Launch netbeans 2. Open one or more files 3. Modify a file but do not save 4. Cmd-Q or File > Quit. See the "Unsaved changes" prompt 5. Hit ESC key or Cancel button to dismiss. Dialog disappears but Netbeans system menu item remains highlighted. 6. Exit unsaved changes state (undo, Save, or close that file and choose to save or discard) 7. Cmd-Q or File > Quit, no way to quit Only Force Quit exits Netbeans at that point. Launch again, and all's well again including quitting normally except in the above HTR. Note that in this stuck state, hitting Cmd-Q does flash the highlighted menu item, so it's at least "trying" to execute. A few other issues in this queue describe "I can't quit Netbeans" or "I have to force quit" on mac, and some talk about plugin updates and other scenarios. This one did not feel exactly the same, but may provide clues there, too.ne
