I saw many bug reporters simply deleting the issue reporting template at https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/new (and usually then filing only very little information, definitely not enough to make sense of the bug report), but I never saw this bug reporting template being used to report a Git for Windows bug to the Git mailing list yet ;-) > ### Setup > > - Which version of Git for Windows are you using?

If it was a short-lived process, you can check again by clicking that "Refresh" button on the lower left.

Unfortunately I have hit refresh many times in previous attempts. Notwithstanding, the dialog maintains the error condition claiming pid 10128 must be closed prior to install. I'm a big fan of Git but not a Windows fan in the least. I have downloaded the latest Windows git and killing as many apps and pids possible after Windows restart the installation goes south nonetheless. Please advise.

That must mean that there *is* a process with that ID. Have you tried `wmic process list`?
