If there is a service that does not want to stop then there is an option to kill the Service PID, via Windows command.

First you will need to establish on what PID this service is running on. To do this access the Task Manager and go to the Services.

Find what the PID number of the service is. Eg TNGService 2480

Next run the windows command line program AS ADMINISTRATOR (Very Important)
Enter the following command as is except you will have to replace the correct PID

Code: Select all
Taskkill /PID 2480 /F


The result will be as follows:
Code: Select all
SUCCESS: The process with PID 4808 has been terminated.

C:\Windows\system32>


The service would now be stopped. There after the service can be manually started up again
