When I try to kill the javaw.exe process(pid 2128) , I am told that this cannot be done because there is a child process(pid2060).
Then, when I want to kill the child process(2060), I am told that it doesn't exist.

So I am stuck.
I have installed "Process ...

Just to add a remark.
If I stop UMS after watching only one movie ( UMS javaw Memory < 1GB) , it seems that when I stop the UMS , the javaw.exe task stops . When the memory is too big, then the javaw.exe task doesn't stop anymore and I have to reboot the Desktop.

Thanks
So the UMS(javaw) task memory grows and grows each time that I watch a movie on the TV and seems to grow until there is no more RAM available.

When I stop it, right click on the UMS icon in the Windows taskbar then "quit", the GUI closes, I don't see the UMS icon anymore in the taskbar, but ...

I think that the only way to get rid of this memory increase is to stop/start UMS every day.

Is there a CLI way to stop and start UMS so I can schedule it with Windows Seven ?

I have found a start command ( UMS.exe <argument 1> <argument 2> <...argument X> ) but nothing about a stop command.

I have doublechecked. I don't run UMS as a service.
I have reinstalled java.

Nothing has changed.
Yesterday, I used UMS to watch movies on my TV. This morning my Desktop is short of memory due to UMS (6GB RAM).
I have stopped UMS (right click then quit) but the task is still there.

I still have the issue.
I have a javaw task growing eating now 870MB RAM + the javaw ums task.
When I stop UMS, the first java task is never stopped and I cannot kill it. Each time I need to reboot.
Any suggestion ?
I am running Windows seven.

I am running UMS 8.0.1 build 20190331 on Windows seven with jre 1.8.0_12.
After watching a movie, the memory used by the tawk javaw.exe (used by UMS) has grown to 5 GB (maximum available).
When I stop UMS , the javaw.exe tasks remains and there is no way to kill it . Even taskkill /F doesn't kill it ...

Hi,
I come back because it still doesn't work for me. I run UMS V7.5.0 on Windows 7.

I thought this issue (see the subject) would have been fixed in the Version 7.

Yesterday I have added a movie along with its srt file. The movie has automatically been detected by UMS but not the srt file, so I ...

Thanks for the status.

I thought that I might have misconfigured UMS.
Let's wait for UMS 7.0.0 then.

Thanks for this awesome software.

I have searched the forum until 2015 and I have not found anything about this issue.

When I add a new avi or mkv file in the right directory, it is shown in the UMS list on my TV.

If I add a new srt file for this new movie, UMS doesn't detect it and doesn't show it when I play the movie on my TV ...
