What is the File's Owner? Is the window controller the file's owner? Is the window controller the one loading the NIB (rather than, say, using NSBundle or NSNib directly)? NSWindowController has some built-in functionality to break retain cycles for binding through File's Owner when and only when it is the File's Owner and loads the NIB. What would you sensibly bind to the File's Owner itself, rather than one of its properties? In other words, what is bound to or through the object controller? > Is there something important that I should be doing here?

It shouldn't be required, but, as a last resort, you can set the object controller's content to nil in -windowWillClose:.
