Game accidentally stuck on exit screen during a game

I accidentally got something stuck on my touch pad, and while trying to navigate with my cursor moving like it was stuck in quicksand or molases, I accidentally hit exit while a game was in progress. I closed my laptop which fixed the cursor issue, but now the game is frozen on the exit screen, with the option to hit cancel, to return to the game, or continue, which would close the app. However when I press exit nothing happens, it clicks through the button but the screen remains the same. Don't want to try to see what happens if I press continue as I would lose a large part of my season as my game hasn't been saved for a few months. It also will not let me click on the app, I have to hover over it and scroll over the pop-up screen to even access it. Are there any fixes to this?
