Okay, I have everything completely off (no NR on process list, etc) and I can't delete the NightRegulator folder because the following file: mswinsck.ocx claims it is in use. I (along with my buddy Goku) can't get the piece of crap to go anywhere. So, how to fix the issue?

Control Panel > Add/Remove Software > NR

You could also boot up in safe mode, You have to do this because nightma registers that dll as the dll for the computer, And other systems use that dll that are running when you login. Although I dont have a problem deleting it, So maybe just restart your computer then delete.

PsuFan hit the nail on the head... mswinsck.ocx is used by alot of programs.

use add/remove programs to uninstall NR, the only other way is to restart ur computer/close running programs. Something is useing the file other than NR.

May i ask why you are uninstalling NR? :O

Well, Goku had one hell of a time rebooting. The file prevented the PC and all from shutting down but he got it to shutdown eventually. Anyways, it's safe to say we won't use NR anymore. The reason I was uninstalling it was to install the latest beta from my machine onto his dedicated machine. However, we won't be making that mistake anymore.

Honestly, I like how easy NR is to use and how nice and organized the console is overall but, in my opinion, it's useless if the software is too glitchy. I must congratulate your efforts but I won't be using NR anymore due to all the bugs I encounter and lack of personal customization (ex. I can't even run my customized server side mod without NR b*tching that it's 'corrupt'). Good luck on fixing all those bugs and in the future hopefully your product will be much better.

Cya all.

The only thing NR requires is that ur running scripts.dll 2.9.2 or later - or BETA 8 requires that your running SSGM so you can modify SSGM and add plugins etc. Your scripts are out of date and that is why NR is complaining. If you dont like it complaining, then disable the message :P

accually ive never heard of that problem before... im pretty confident you had another program running that was useing the .ocx - not NR
