Nitro Pro 9 keeps freezing up and shutting down

[Kelly D 0]

Allain: Finding it almost impossible to get help here. My Nitro Pro 9 keeps freezing up and shutting down.  I do have a trial version of the newest Nitro Pro running.  I'm trying to uninstall both of them but I keep getting this error message 

Something is blocking Nitro Pro from proceeding

• NitroPDF.exe is being held by the following process: NitroPDF, IdL , Windows Title: Nitro Pro. Close that application and retry.

I have no other .pdfs or nitro applications running when I get this.  What do I do.  This is becoming an unworkable situation.
