MinimWatch: running but no icon

[magister]

I have twice looked through the Processes tab in Task Manager but cannot find javaw.exe. (Windows still claims that MinimWatch is running.) FWIW, this situation has continued despite several reboots.

Perhaps my Java installation has gotten corrupted? I opened the Java control panel and it says that I am running Java 8, update 141. That looks OK but I really don't know.

Update: I decided to reinstall Java just to see what happened. I uninstalled Java from the Control Panel/Programs and Features, then rebooted the computer. I went back to Programs and Features, intending to uninstall MinmWatch before reinstalling Java. I get the same message that MinimWatch is currently running. This is bizarre -- MinimWatch can't run without Java, right?!?
