Is this on an emulator? I cannot replicate this in the emulator and don't
have a PPC here to test with. The only time I managed to close the app and
file explorer was when I was tapped twice on the top right corner so the
first time the app closed and the second tap went to explorer's X

Does it happen with all CF apps or just with one in particular? Write the
simplest CF app and try that to see if the behaviour is the same...

If it only happens on the device post the details so if someone else has run
in to it can help...

Cannot find anything in archives either..closest match is this:
