Hello again,

Your fix is perfect.

Result:
The second file is closed.

This happens in previous versions as well.
Should I open a new issue for that?

Thank you.

Hello Yaron,

Yes, I've observed the same behavior but ignored it for now as it is not critical and high priority.
You can open new issue for that just to have this written and remember to fix it in the future.
Thanks.
