My guess is the plug-in that is causing the error at startup is also causing it not to close. If you think it’s a VST plugin, try renaming your Vstplugin directory to eliminate all VST plugins and see if you still get the error and can close. If it’s a DirectX plug-in, there is a tool that will allow you to disable DirectX plug-ins (I forget the name and have never used it but someone mentioned it on this forum a few days ago). You need to figure out what plug-in is not working and eliminate it. ~jr

If the pane is busy, you won't be able to exit until it is complete. You can test if this is the case by displaying the Media Manager pane and moving the mouse over it. If the mouse turns into an hourglass while over the pane, it is busy.
