TF2 will not show as a running process. When you are running any source games ( like TF2, CS, Portal, etc) you will have a process named "hl2.exe". Now, when you close your game, usually this process will shut down too.

As people has been saying you have search for, and manually shut down "gameoverlayUI.exe". Or, "conime.exe", as I did myself as I didn't have "gameovelayUI.exe" process listed.

Now you check your steam status says "Online" not "in game".
