I have a few exes running under a different user account. Found multiple instances of the exe running in that useraccont. Tried to kill them with taskkill command. It shows SUCCESS but the processes still remain in the task manager. Rebooted the server to kill the process. Need help???

do a virus scan if you dont recognize the processes

jazz is a state of mind... MCP Windows XP.

Us the /f switch with taskkill, that will get rid of it.

Same problem here. Tried the /f etc and all options that make sense. Point is it reports success but DOES NOT kill the taks. Creative ctcms.exe is a favourite, and withoput it being killed, cannot restart, so have to reboot.

same shit here with 'adobe premiere pro.exe' after the application crashed. it's in the taskmanager but none of the known methods can terminate it (taskkill, sysinternals pskill, process explorer, etc.), the only solution is to reboot the system (machine). how could it be possible!? i can't believe there is no way to kill a dead task :-(

Almost a year later, and I'm having the same issue with a Backup Exec process. Still no solution to this? None of the well known (taskkill.exe /f, pskill, task manager) methods will kill the process. I need a way to kill a process that just works.
