Trouble closing my program

I have an exit button and an event to catch App Exit and App Exit? 
 
Question 1: Whats the difference between App Exit and App Exit?
 
Question 2:  For some reason, when I push the EXIT button I made the app takes a few seconds to close, maybe 5 or so.  When I push the X windows gives me the App closes but a LabView Instance stays in my taskbar and has to be killed by "End Task"
 
I have included an incomplete vi of my event structure, is there something wrong with it or does anyone have any ideas?
 
Thanks

The difference between Application Exit, and Application Exit?...

The idea is that Application Exit (no question mark - this applies to all events) is the event after LabVIEW has processed it.  For instance, if you were to click the close button, LabVIEW would already have processed it before your code was executed.

Events with the question mark let you know that something has happened, but lets you act before it does any processing of what has happened, and I think even lets you alter what it might do.

Check the help for more info...
