This is interesting.

I have had this problem of gnucash intermittently not removing the LOCK file for some time. My method of closing gnucash is firstly to save the data and the close using the menu. I always follow this process and never use the 'X' method.

August 24, 2021 gnucash ver 4.6, I investigated using SQLlite instead of the compressed XML for data storage. SQLite worked but the resultant file(s) were much larger than the XML compressed version so I decided to continue to use the compressed XML.

From that date (August 24, 2021) to today I still get gnucash intermittently not removing the LOCK file.
This includes ver4.7, ver4.8 and ver4.9. It may happen ver4.6 but unsure.
Ever time I updated I hoped it would resolve the issue but it still happens.
About 20 days ago I deleted the SQL subdirectory and files from my local data disk. This seemed to make no difference to the issue.
