[RESOLVED] Exiting a VP9 table issue

[palparknj]

Hi all, 

I am having trouble finding a solution to this problem. After a couple of hours of searching the internet for a solution, I thought I would ask for help from the experts. 

I am using PinballX as my front end. When I exit a table that is running on Visual Pinball, it doesn't return me to the PinballX screen but rather it takes me to the VP9 editor. I have to close VP9 in order to get back to my full screen PinballX front end. It has to be a simple setting that I am overlooking. but for the life of me, I can't find it. 

I am running a desktop PC running Windows 10. In the future I plan to add a second monitor but for now, just one. I am using NO 3rd party plugins. The issue does not happen when exiting a Future Pinball table, just Visual Pinball. I noticed that  the Future Pinball settings within PinballX have default parameters ( /play /exit /arcaderender) that I assume allows the table to exit back to the PBX front end, but I found no such parameters that worked on Visual Pinball.

In case it will help, I am posting my PinballX config file.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Vince

Looks like you didn't set the correct key in PBX to exit the emulator(you use key 27 to exit) , or try to run PinballX as admin
please attach your logfile

Thank you, Mike. Running as administrator solved the problem. Much appreciated!
