Using Windows 11 and GnuCash 4.10

Also had this issue in an older version.  Clicked on the "X" to shut down and had not saved first.  In the dialogue I clicked on Cancel, but it still shutdown.  I expected "Cancel" to cancel the operation (shutdown), am I wrong.  What operation is it canceling?  All 3 options have the same result,  They all close the program without saving and upon restart, I got the message that "GnuCash could not obtain the lock for C:\Users\*****\OneDrive\Documents\GNUCash\**.gnucash." (see pic 2)  "***" for my specific system names.

I will try to remember to "Save" first, however when I do forget it is frustrating that this built in safeguard doesn't work.


Thank You,
