Disconnecting and reconnecting when a game is hung up.

  Hi.

   

  i've noticed when games have hung up that people disconnect and reconnect again to get things going. How do you do this please?

  When I hit thee 3 spots top left the only option along these lines is to forfeit the game, so getting back in is not possible.

  Any help will be gratefully received.

  I switch to my Windows desktop screen (by pressing Windows key on keyboard), right click (with mouse) the WGT icon on the taskbar, and select "close window".

  I then re-start WGT.

  All the best,

  Albert

  If you play in windowed mode, just close it with 'X', or if in fullscreen, ALT + F4, then re-start the game.

  If you play on a mobile device, you'll have to hard-close the app and then restart it.

  Thanks very much, ScottHope, I'll give it a try if there are problems tonight.

  Thanks, Sam.

  I play on a computer, so I'll try the above if it happens again tonight.

  I play on PC also and if it hangs on "loading or reconnecting", I try to start the game on my phone and it gets it moving. Worked twice so far anyway...
