ENHANCED: Improved and Safer Shutdown

Explanation of Potential Problem

• CNC Bender software saves its current state and setup in a configuration files and registry entries software during shutdown.
• If the standard shutdown procedure is bypassed due to a loss of power or a system crash, then CNC Bender, in previous versions, may attempt to write a file - only to be interrupted in the shutdown task.
• The result is a possible corruption of this file.
  
  

Solution To Issue

This version solves the problem by placing an intentional delay between the time the operator requests a shutdown and the time the configuration data is written to disk and registry.

So...

1. The operator requests shutdown of software.
2. CNC Bender hides the interface.
3. CNC Bender displays a shutdown message on the screen showing a progress bar.
4. After the progress bar is filled, CNC Bender saves its configuration data.



If the power is removed or the system crashes
