If you can't delete mysqld.exe then the process mysqld.exe must almost certainly be running. Have another look in Task Manager. Make sure you are seeing all running processes. Kill it if/when you find it.
FYI (and any others): To completely remove SlimServer 6.5.1 and 6.5.2 from Windows 2000/XP etc it is best to: * Stop the SlimServer process (right click on tray icon and select Stop SlimServer). * Remove Slimserver program via Windows Add/Remove Programs. * Go to Task Manager and ensure that all slim related processes are not listed (i.e. mysqld.exe, slim.exe or slimtray.exe). If any are listed right click on them and select "End Process". * Then go to your installation directory (by default: C:\Program Files\SlimServer and delete it. All done. Note: The usual problem with deletion is that the Windows SlimServer uninstal program has a bug and does not (cannot?) stop the MySQL daemon and so the file mysqld.exe cannot be deleted and neither can the directories containing it.
