Ive had a series of problems with some applications. I run them and they work ok, but the problem is when I shut them down, they wont end. The program does not respond and closing it via task manager will not end the process. Neither will taskkill in a command prompt. Its as if the process is stuck. Ive tried pskill and that wont help. Its not all processes but some, anyone any ideas as to why this is happening ? I have to reboot to end the process and its driving me mad.
