What's Wrong?
I opened a help file on the desktop app, and now i cannot close that window. It covers half my screen so basically renders the app unusable. The close X doesn't highlight and cannot be closed. Exiting the app and restarting does nothing as the help window opens automatically and is automatically stuck again

What Should Happen?
Should close when you click the X
