Can't kill AcroRD32.exe in my task manager

[notageek]

I tried everything and I can't kill it. Anyone know how to kill it without me downloading lots of programs trying to kill it?

I highly recommend replacing Task Manager with Process Explorer:

I have had the same problem with Acrobat Reader. Not so much with the latest version. But I have never had a problem killing it with Process Explorer.

I have Process explorer. I can't even kill it with that.

Is there an instance of Internet Explorer or Firefox still running too? If so, kill that. The reader should go away then.

[notageek]

Nope not browsers running.

You could uninstall the Adobe stuff and use this.

I don't need to install it, I want to kill the process it left running.

delete any related link to acrobat in startup (msconfig).

Is there anyway you can post an image of all the processes?
