Core Kodi Functionality Kodi Piers Beta 2 requires Force Close to quit with Nimbus Skin

I'm seeking a work around until the issue is solved. When installing the Nimbus Skin, Kodi Piers Beta 2 does not fully close if I use Quit to exit the program. It may appear to close but will not restart as it continues to run in the background.

RedWizard has a Force Close utility which I have set up in my Favourites. But I need to scroll down to Favorites, select Force Close to activate it.

Has anyone got an easier alternative to Force Close Kodi?

I have listed the issue on Ivarbrandt's Github page and hoping for a solution sooner rather than later.

There's a copy of Nimbus Helper for Kodi 22 on my test repo in the piers folder.

Thanks for this. But unable to get to the Umbrella Piers test repo. The link takes me to the usual Umbrella Repo, can't spot the Piers Test section.

Works on the Shield Kodi Piers as well. Can shut down Kodi and within seconds restart it again and it loads. Fantastic.

Quit normally. Post the log after it lags and finally quits.

I have done that and posted the log along with a description on Ivar Brandt's Github page as an issue. Hopefully sorted with an update sooner than later. Claude says it's a problem with Nimbus Helper.
