Stuck queue (PIC inside)

Is there no way I can remove a stuck file from the queue so the other queued items can get unpacked?

This is probably a hangup of the par2 program.
Use the Task Manager (assuming you are using Windows) to kill the par2.exe process.
This will make the job fail and resume the queue.
Should this happen often, then your system is not compatible with par2-multicore.
There's an option in Config->Switches to go back to the older (slower, but more reliable) version.

Obviously other causes are always possible.
It's just that this seems to be a major cause.
It looks like par2-multicore is very sensitive to fringe hardware
(either that or it's just buggy).
The team's experience with par2-multicore has been very good.
