Cannot close NoMachine application

[ticotexas]

On Ubuntu 19.04, when I right click the tray icon and choose ‘close the  NoMachine application’ , then enter the administrator password as prompted, NoMachine keeps running and never closes. I also cannot kill it manually. It restarts itself. If I reboot, it starts upon boot as well even though not selected that way in settings. Basically I cannot seem to shut it down without potentially uninstalling it. Any suggestions?

Does this help?

Disabling the automatic start-up of NoMachine at boot time

Try to open a terminal window and run the command

sudo -l

what do you get?

By the way, you can shutdown NoMachine server also using this command:

sudo /etc/NX/nxserver --shutdown

Yes, that did help close it from the terminal. thanks. I still cannot figure out why it would not shut down using the !M icon however

Please, also collect the .nx directory in the user’s home on server side. You can do it also from the command line:

tar -cvp --exclude 'cache*' --exclude 'images' --exclude 'temp' $HOME/.nx | gzip -c >nxdir.tar.gz
