Can't even delete MS? - GermPuncher - 2010-06-20
Ok, I told my sell today, that if I didn't get to 30 today, I would quit, because I just hadn't been feeling Maple. Well, huge electrical storm, so I couldn't. And I'm trying to delete MS, but it says that MS is still running!!!!! What do I do, please... Btw, I was only on during the storm for 10 minutes, and I didn't hear any thunder or see any lightning when I was playing then....

Did you try restarting your computer and then trying to delete?

Yes

Open up a run prompt[Start Menu --> Run{if you're using Windows 7 just type it in the search thing on the start menu}] and try typing "taskkill /F /IM maplestory.exe" without the quotes. That should definitely make the game stop running. Although, since you've already tried restarting and I have no idea why MS would start on boot - there may be a deeper problem here.

You could also try rebooting into safe mode (hold F8 while Windows XP is booting -- I'm not sure that the hotkey is the same for Vista/7) and then try to uninstall.
