ahh okay, here it is laugh
I did some more trials, and it must be because of my code (but it is strange why it happens only in the trial version), because only one of my projects start to cause this error, but afterwards other 3dgs applications also closed wrongly. after pc restart the others are closed well.

Code:

if I use only the main menu of the same project, everything is fine, so probably I should check again my dynamic arrays, especially where I use malloc/realloc/free instead of sys_malloc/sys_free. I think, a few global string arrays cannot cause this behaviour.

I changed my exit event, now a new refined exit function is called, and the directx problem disappeared. only the crash message remained. and I also transformed a static entity array into a dynamically created one.
