stopping a mesh without stopping creo

[dilgert]

I started a mesh with either too small of element or too restrictive element angle settings.  It is taking forever (already over 70 minutes)  Is there a way of stopping this in creo without an  "end task" in task manager?

You can end msengine.exe and it will end the simulation but not kill Creo. msengine.exe has nothing to do with Microsoft. It is the Mechanica Solver (Simulate).

I am sorry but I really do not think you actually ever read my questions before answering them.  I am not running a simulation, I am meshing.  The correct answer to my question it to click on the stop sign on the bottom bar in creo which brings up a box which allows one to abort the mesh.
