CK2 logs me out after Quit Game on macOS Mojave

[oniroutard]

After upgrading to macOS Mojave (10.14.6), quitting CK2 after playing will result in me being logged out of the current session and seeing the Lock Screen. If I attempt to log back in, the operating system will freeze, forcing me to either shut it down or restart.

I have EU4 as well, which behaves normally. Quitting EU4 after playing will simply bring me back to the Steam Client.

CK2 is still playable but it takes away from the experience having to restart every time I quit the game.

I play on an external monitor and use Dark Mode.

Has anybody else had this problem? Is there a solution to this?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

This does not happen on my 2017 iMac. I frankly find it hard to imagine what could possibly cause this!

May as well try a full **clean** re-install:

- move any valued save games elsewhere
- "uninstall" in Steam-CK2
- manually delete both the Steam/SteamApps/common/CK2 AND Documents/Paradox/CK2 folders
- re-install game in Steam, run a Steam Verify when done.
- start the game with no mods active and test

In particular make sure there are no files or folders left under either the Steam CK2 or Documents CK2 locations, before installing again.

**File Locations on Mac OS X**
The executable and DLC folder are in Users/USER/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/Crusader Kings II/
On OS X 10.8.x and later, Apple have hidden the /Users/USER/Library/ folder. To see it go to the Finder, hit command-shift-G (ie Go To) and type in ~/Library/ .
The user files (settings.txt, error logs, saved games, gfx, mods) are in /Users/USER/Documents/Paradox Interactive/Crusader Kings II/ .
