Follow-up Comment #20, bug #44485 (project octave):

On Windows I also tried octave-gui from a cmd window and an MSYS terminal
(rather than from a shortcut in the Star Menu or desktop). In both cases I saw
no error messages at all when Octave disappeared from the screen.

It is on a quite fast PC (recent core i5 & SSD) so perhaps I indeed missed
flashing error messages, who knows.

IMO a backtrace isn't very useful. After all the user knowingly does a Forced
exit, isn't it? - her/his primary aim is to get out of Octave ASAP. It's an
excessively long backtrace as well (on Linux).
If you can make it so that he backtrace isn't shown I think the aim of this
bug report has been reached: File | Exit works as expected by the average
user.
