Take the tour ×  I've been trying out Spotify for the past few
days, and have been annoyed that clicking the X button in the
top right of the window just minimizes it instead of closing it.
In fact, even right-clicking it in the task bar and then
selecting "close window" won't close it. Neither will Alt-F4.
The only two ways I know of to close it (short of killing it
from the task manager) are using File → Exit or right-clicking
on the tray icon and selecting Exit. Unfortunately, there don't
seem to be any options to change its behavior either.  I've also
noticed this behavior in other programs like Google Talk and
Skype, but it makes more sense to me there since people
typically want them to keep running in the background. However,
I don't see why anyone would want Spotify always running even if
they weren't listening to music.  Is there a way in Windows 7 to
override this behavior so that clicking the X will force the
program to exit? I suppose I could write an AutoHotKey script to
make a keyboard shortcut
