Dear pgAdmin Team,

I hope you are doing well. I would like to report a bug I encountered in pgAdmin 4 related to the exit confirmation prompt.

When attempting to close pgAdmin 4 using the "X" (Close) button, the Exit Confirmation Prompt appears, asking for confirmation (Yes/No). However, if the user clicks the "X" button on the exit prompt itself, the prompt reopens again and again repeatedly, instead of closing or keeping the application open.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open pgAdmin 4.
  2. Click on the "X" (Close) button in the application window.
  3. The exit confirmation prompt appears, asking for confirmation (yes/no).
  4. Instead of selecting "Yes" or "No," click on the "X" button on the exit prompt to close it.
  5. Expected Behavior: The prompt should close, and pgAdmin should either remain open or exit completely.
  6. Actual Behavior: The exit confirmation prompt keeps reopening repeatedly, creating an unexpected experience where the user is forced to keep interacting with the prompt multiple times.

Expected vs. Actual Behavior:

  • Expected: Closing the exit prompt (by clicking "X") should either keep pgAdmin open or exit without showing the prompt again.
  • Actual: The exit confirmation prompt keeps reopening repeatedly, forcing the user to deal with it multiple times instead of only once.

System Information:

  • pgAdmin Version: (pgAdmin 4 v8.14)
  • Operating System: (Ubuntu 24.04)

Suggested Fix:

  • Ensure that when the exit prompt is closed (X button), pgAdmin does not reopen the prompt repeatedly.
  • The exit prompt should only appear once per close action, preventing unnecessary interactions.

Looking forward to your response.
