Hi lz22

According to google-search, this should be a patch to the game
Starcraft.

Do you have Starcraft on your machine?

If so, uninstalling Starcraft may get rid of the file.
Then install anew.

Hi lz22

Normally when you apply a patch to a program, its incorporated into that program.
So if you delete/stop the process, you would also cripple/stop Starcraft.

But try uninstall Starcraft, then install anew. That should get rid of the patch. Remember to
delete any Starcraft related folders before installing again. You may, however find that the
patch is necessary in some way.

As a side-question: Do you remember where you downloaded the patch? It could be
a bad install file or something. A whole new patch may do the trick.
