After I edited the config file to get DOSBox to automatically display in fullscreen and mount a specific directory on startup, the other window that opens behind the DOSBox program window does not close when I exit the program (either by typing 'exit' in the prompt or usint Ctrl+F9).

The window in question displays no errors that I can see; the only text in the window is:

CONFIG:Loading settings from config file C:\Program Files\DOSBox-0.63\dosbox.conf
MIDI:Opened device:win32

I am unable to close this window directly--no matter how I tell the window to close, it hangs for a couple of seconds and I get the "this program is not responding" dialog and have to click the "End Task" button to actually close it.

This isn't really that big of a deal to me, but is a *minor* annoyance. Any ideas as to how to fix this?

Will it also hang if you comment out the full-screen setting in the config?
