Non-existing minimWatch preventing upgrade

[rhh]

Greetings, all.

Windows 10, 64bit

I am trying to reinstall minimWatch, as my first install would not display a window. I first made sure I had the newest 64bit Java, then tried to install the latest minimWatch. No go, as supposedly, minimWatch was already running. I couldn't find any relevant processes, so I uninstalled it using the Control Panel. I then rebooted, but the minimWatch install still thinks an old minimWatch process is still running (though I don't know how). How can I get this to work, as minimWatch appears to be needed to set up transcoding (with minimStreamer)? I keep rebooting, but the ghost minimWatch "process" is still preventing me from installing a working, accessible copy of the program.

Right now, I have absolutely no access to any version of minimWatch on this computer.

TIA,
rhh
