[BUG] Cannot stop node

[pluto2021]

Describe the bug
After Windows forced updated that killed and messed up the blockchain GUI, and possible some other things. it has been syncing extremely slow somehow for a couple of days now. I am still able to plot. However, when I tried to stop all in command mode, while the GUI still plotting, it gives the following error,

C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\chia-blockchain\app-1.1.5\resources\app.asar.unpacked\daemon>chia stop all
chia_harvester: Error, timeout.
Stop failed
chia_timelord_launcher: Error, timeout.

TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable
[3372] Failed to execute script chia

To Reproduce
[1] Force shutdown Windows while the GUI is syncing and plotting.
[2] Delete the .chia folder and start syncing from zero
[3] Start plotting while syncing
[4] run the "chia stop all" command

Expected behavior
The chia command should be able to handle this exception and give out proper steps to follow when this exception would happen. For example, a message like, "please wait for the plotting process to complete before stopping". If this error is due to whatever the windows update did to the system, not sure what would be the fix.

Screenshots

Maybe the CPU is overloaded and then Chia is not able to respond to the close commands? Make sure plotting is not taking all of the CPU time.

If you are still experiencing the issues it is recommended to upgrade to the latest version of chia. Please download it from here: https://www.chia.net/downloads/

Since this issue has been open for a number of years without additional comments, we will be closing this ticket but if we have closed this ticket in error do not hesitate to reach out to us again with any followup questions, comments, or if the issue persists after an update.

Please note that upgrading major versions of chia generally requires the config.yaml to be recreated using these steps:
1. Stop chia
2. Rename the config or move it to a different directory
3. In CLI run chia init
4. Copy any custom settings from the old config to the new (plot drive directories, pool info, trusted node info, etc) - be careful here as yaml is very picky about formatting including those leading spaces
5. Start Chia
