Unknown program not responding
This issue started for me yesterday. I get this if all I do is boot then wait a few minutes and choose to shutdown. I have captured a ps -ef as well as a screen snap of the "A program is still running:" and in the box "Unknown Not responding" and a message that says "Waiting for program to finish. Interrupting may cause you to lose work." with options to "Lock Screen" or "Cancel" or "Shutdown anyway"...
Here is the result of my "ps -ef" - note this was just after booting - no apps started by me manually taking an action on the system...
