As the title says, i cannot update my mods anymore as the esp. and bsa. files are still open in the game despite the game not running, even when the process is seemingly gone from the task manager.

 

It started when Skyrim had an unusual crash where it apparently closed itself after showing a black screen and after i Cntrl-alt-delete for the task manager. The game process was still on and i could not end it so i restarted my pc which seemingly did end the task.

 

Please help, i just wanted to update the Recorder Follower Mod.

 

EDIT: Ok so it seems that the game is still running, i went to check the details on my task manager and TESV.exe is there. I cannot end the task nor the process tree so please help.

Ok so this thread has been a one-man troubleshoot. Literally, the one looking for help and then the one who helped.

 

So i did a force shut down of my pc, as in hold down the power button. It will kill TESV.exe without any trouble, if the pc is taking a longer time to let you log in, it means its getting its processes back up again.

 

So for anyone else having trouble with the clingy TESV.exe process sitting in your task manager, just do a force shut down as it will terminate all processe without any hurdles.
