Bot stuck in progress - status is active - can't stop

Hi

 

I was running a bot on Community Edition and I believe it may be stuck in a loop as I get this error when I try to run something else or remove device:

UNKNOWN: User: (XYZ) is already running a bot on device: (ABC)

If the problem persists, please contact...

 

Is there any way I can resolve this? I've tried multiple different solutions and followed prior community messages.

 

Thank you
