Weird Problem with VisualStudioExpress2008 Console window...

I searched on google, but then I thought I might give it a try here in the forum, maybe someone knows something.

Well, when I debug irrlicht and step through the code before the first frame has ever been drawn and then go to the menu and choose "stop debugging" (hopefully found what I was looking for)...

...The console window stays OPEN, and no matter what I do I am unable to close it. Right now I have a stack of 5 open consoles in the taskbar and clicking on them->"close group" doesn't do anything.

The only way I can make sure the console closes the way it should, is by making sure I draw at least one frame before exiting the debugger, in that case the console closes automatically, the way it should.

Anyone ever run into that problem before, even better know how to fix it ?

thanks in advance

EDIT: I think it must have started with some windows update or something, definitly never had that problem before.
