    Dear Royals,
    To all of those among us who have issues with relaunching mapleroyals.exe after exiting the game or crashing.
    Many of those who experience such an inconvenience own Kaspersky security solutions, which in this case is resolved.
    I took the initiation to drive to the local Kaspersky HQ and present the issue, recreate it and watch it being patched.
    Kaspersky guaranteed me to have patched the issue and indeed I no longer require any solutions for it.

    But for those who for some reason still experience:
    -Can't launch MapleRoyals.exe more than ones.
    -Must restart to launch it again.
    -Process can't be killed through task manager.

    Here is a solution offered by @Oldie [Alex] - all credit goes only to him.

    1) open notepad and copy and paste the code. (without the ---------- )
    -----------------------------------------
    @Echo off
    taskkill /im MapleRoyals.exe /f /t
    exit
    -----------------------------------------
    2)Save As MapleKiller.bat (you can change MapleKiller to whatever you like, just make sure it ends with .bat)
    Make sure "All Files" is selected in the drop down for file type. Save it to your desktop for convenience.

    *The code uses the default name MapleRoyals.exe to function. If you renamed your game binary from MapleRoyals.exe to something else, you will have to change the part of the code with MapleRoyals.exe accordingly.

    3)To kill the hang process, right click and run as admin so that it gets the full admin privileges that it will need to end the process. (VERY IMPORTANT TO RUN AS ADMIN)

    Thank you Alex for reaching a hand here.
    Note:
    This solution can work on any hang process that is unkillable through task manager.

    Have an outstanding day guys.
    Sincerely yours, Alexander.

    Thanks for the credit. But it won't kill just any process. For example this wouldn't kill an anti-virus process as they launch as system vital processes.

    Also, this will not work on Windows XP Home Edition. You must have XP Professional or higher for the taskkill binary to be present on your computer, which is used to kill the process.

    If Your Processes Freezes, Or You Like to Restart The Game Sometimes...

    If your game freezes quite often, you can create a batch file from this code instead (without the ---------- ) :
    -----------------------------------------
    @Echo off
    taskkill /im MapleRoyals.exe /f /t
    ping 0.0.0.0 -n 1 >nul
    START "" "%PROGRAMFILES%\Maple Royals\MapleRoyals.exe"
    exit
    -----------------------------------------
    Just take note, in the script I have %PROGRAMFILES%\Maple Royals\MapleRoyals.exe as the location for the game. If you do not have the game binary located in this default location, make sure you change it accordingly in your code.


    Save it to your desktop, right click it and create a shortcut. Then right click the shortcut and click properties. Then click on the "Shortcut Key" box hold ctrl + alt, then press whichever key you'd like to put the shortcut on. I put it on my F12.

    If you are ever in-game and must quickly restart the client completely, just hit your shortcut key combo and it will close and start again immediately.

    @CodE So, if I go on their website now and download the latest version of Kaspersky 3.0, I won't have any problems with installing MapleRoyals and will not have to put the files under exclusion, nor will I have trouble launching more than once per restart?
