I'm not sure what would cause this. The call to AuthHelper.GetAuthFromBrowser is wrapped in a try/catch.

		OF DL/Program.cs
		Lines 42 to 55 in 37fae9185a
	
						try

						{

							AuthHelper authHelper = new();

							Task setupBrowserTask = authHelper.SetupBrowser(runningInDocker);

							Task.Delay(1000).Wait();

							if (!setupBrowserTask.IsCompleted)

							{

								AnsiConsole.MarkupLine($"[yellow]Downloading dependencies. Please wait ...[/]");

							}

							setupBrowserTask.Wait();

							Task<Auth?> getAuthTask = authHelper.GetAuthFromBrowser();

							Task.Delay(5000).Wait();

Maybe PuppeteerSharp calls exit directly and its not being caught as a result?

That's possible, but if that's the case, there really isn't anything we could do about it. Hopefully transitioning to Playwright will fix this issue.
