Hi, That is correct. The Finder cannot be closed, nor does it need to be. Things like Spotlight are usually services, not apps, thus when you close it, the Finder is still considered the running application, but focus is not within the correct window. The cmd-tab I mentioned will bring focus back to the correct Finder window and you should be fine to proceed.
If you still have questions, feel free to ask away. Later...
