What's Wrong?

Background task entries persist in the UI after processes have died, Stop buttons have no effect

What Should Happen?

Stale tasks should close by themselves or should close if I press the button. They don't stop or respond even after I press stop button and PID for them don't exist as that task was killed but it still appears in GUI as running
