Steps to reproduce

Environment: Windows 11 + WSL (Ubuntu 24).

Case 1: When using AutoGen to call playwright-mcp, normally the Chrome window launched by Playwright closes automatically after the code exits. However, occasionally the window cannot be closed. Specifically, ps cannot find any chrome or playwright-related processes, but the Chrome window is still visible on the screen. Windows Task Manager also does not show a corresponding process that can be identified as this window.

Case 2: When using agent-framework to call agent-browser (which is based on Playwright), the same issue sometimes occurs. In most cases, agent-browser close can close the window, but occasionally it cannot. The window remains open and cannot be closed through normal commands.

The only way I have found to completely remove the unclosable window is to restart the computer.

Expected behavior

The Chrome window launched by Playwright should be able to be closed normally, either by killing the related process or by clicking the × button on the window.

Actual behavior

The Chrome window cannot be closed. Clicking the × button has no effect. ps cannot find any related process. The page inside the window is also unresponsive and cannot be interacted with.

Additional context
