Wont stop running

Admin
I'm new to the InduSoft IWS world and I'm trying to write simple projects to learn how everything interacts. I had my project running on a 5 second clock schedule that would increment a tag and display a pop-up message box with the value. I tried to add a background script that would not allow the scheduled action to start happening until the time was an even multiple of 5 seconds. When I ran this version of the project it did not respond beyond the first screen (no pop-up messages.) I went through and deleted everything I had added and still couldn't get the project to work as it had earlier in the day.
After struggling for awhile I realized that the project wasn't stopping when I clicked the stop button. I closed the InduSoft software and project and re-opened it and found it still running.
Can someone tell me what caused this and how to stop the project from running?
Thanks!

  • I have been chatting with the InduSoft TechSupport and found the problem. My project created a pop-up every 5-seconds. If I tried to stop the project while a pop-up window was open, the project would hang. The soloution was to stop using the pop-up and instead track the value using either the DataBaseSpy or $Trace.
    The odd thing was that even though I couldn't find the pop-up box, it was still hanging up the software.
