## Stopping the Workstation Client Manually {#stop-client}
23+
24+
The **Close** button closes the Client window but does not terminate the application; it continues to run in the background. To completely quit the Client, right-click its icon in the Windows systray and select **Quit**. This action is only available in [Developer Mode](/mendix-workstation/management-stations/#developer-mode).

Alternatively, you can stop the Workstation Client process by using Windows Task Manager.
