It's probably something updating (something like the myShowTimes plugin)
Personally I'd leave it until it's done but you can use task manager (SHIFT+CTRL+ESC) processes to 'End Task' if you wish.

Moving Pictures or TVSeries can also have this kind of effect, personally I never start and try and immediately stop MP, believe too many corrupted databases are caused by this, correct me if I am wrong in this assumption, too little info to go on.

But logs might give a clue as to what is keeping mediapotal.exe open

i had the same problem once and it was caused by the minidisplay (in my case an imon). if i disabled minidisplay it worked fine again.
maybe you should disable all your plugins and see if its running or better said exiting as expected

Normally I'm called "The Augur" but now I call you "Paranoid Delusion" my prophesier

...it's caused by a buffoon and I'm this fool...
oki, I put two new dll's (moviepictures.dll, mesfilm.dll) into "Plugins\windows"
AND renamed the old only to "old_moviepictures.dll" and "old_mesfilms.dll"
and now I have had 4 dll's on my system which have caused this silly error
...the fool am I , sry 4 posting
