Activity.Finish does not finish

[JakeBullet70]

I have been working on a card game and I cannot get Activity.Finish to end the game.

Here is the log

Installing file.
PackageAdded: package:sad.TwoDPoker
** Activity (main) Create, isFirst = true **
** Activity (main) Resume **

I exit the program here by calling Activity.Finish

** Activity (main) Pause, UserClosed = true **

now I start the program again

** Activity (main) Create, isFirst = false **
** Activity (main) Resume **

I notice that isFirst is false so I am thinking that Activity.Finish did not unload everything????

Never mind...

I need 'ExitApplication'

I think I need to go to sleep, Its 5am.

Note that in most cases calling ExitApplication will only cause trouble.

then how does one truly close an app, so when it is restarted, it restarts instead of resuming?

You should let the OS handle the process. FirstTime should be used to load resources that are required for your program.

You can decide for example that if the user presses on the back key then the program returns to the starting state. It doesn't mean that you need to kill the process. See StateManager module and the code in Activity_Pause.
