Thunderbird is no longer properly closing after upgrading to 115.10.0 (x64)

I upgraded to Thunderbird 115.10.0 (x64) earlier today and now the program is no longer closing completely (I've tried using the X at the top right of the window, and I've also tried File menu -> Exit). I first discovered this when I was using CCleaner to clean my temporary items and it asked me if I wanted to close Thunderbird after I had already closed it. I then checked my running processes and there are three Thunderbird processes that remain after the program has supposedy closed (Task Manager screenshot attached).

Any help with this seemingly new bug is greatly appreciated!

Much thanks, -Snipe

I applied the update just now, and ironically had to manually force quit Thunderbird after clicking "Restart Thunderbird to Update" or whatever the button name is (screenshot attached). I then reopened Thunderbird and the update applied successfully...I closed it and 115.10.1 seems to have fixed the issue (CCleaner isn't complaining and the processses are no longer present in Task Manager). Thank you for the replies!
