2. Link your Steam account to your new Nexon account.
3. Go to the password and security tab, down to Vindictus, and reset second password.

Check my last two artworks for Vindictus for details.
Add me to chat if you have any questions.

Is the underlined part of the post what's locked?

Regarding this secondary PW B.S.

Upon starting Vindictus, I'm notified to enter secondary PW. I don't remember ever making one. Followed EVERY instruction through steam links to Nexon site. Reset confirmation never shows up in my email, but every other notification does, including one for adding an authenticator, which was successfully added. Nexon site confirmed I reset my 2nd PW and instructed me to enter the confirmation code for this action from my email, which never shows up even though I receive emails for every other account event I create at Nexon.com. Here's the rub: my character select screen shows I have a level 1 toon. That's the only toon I've ever rolled in this game. Did it over a year ago and never moved past that as I was spending too much time on other games. Even went so far as to uninstall Vindictus thinking I'd come back when I'd finished playing other games. Steam currently shows I've played Vindictus for 26.9 hours. Impossible. I didn't enter the game after creating my first and only toon. I've relayed all this to support at the Nexon site to no avail. Additionally, after clicking "Exit" button in Vindictus entry screen, the game will not stop running even using Steam's "stop" button. Attempting to exit steam from Steam browser menu will not stop the game. I have to click "Exit Now" to make it stop. I'm with Heavy147 on simply uninstalling.

Any constructive advice on how to work around this crap, or even fix it? TIA and cheers!

All I can say about the secondary password is to follow the instructions I gave a couple posts back. If you have already and it doesn't work, I wouldn't even bother creating a ticket, ♥♥♥♥ it, create a new account if all you have is a level 1 toon with a different email through the nexon launcher instead of through steam.

As for the game not closing; that's been happening lately with me as well. I even recently (3 days ago) was forced to wipe my C drive and reinstall windows, and vindictus still sits there, eating ram, but 'closed'. You don't have to exit steam; close vindictus normally, then just open task manager, select vindictus.exe from the process list, and end process. For whatever reason the game started doing this maybe, 2 months ago, I think, but it's a minor inconvenience really.

Btw those 27 hours was probably the game sitting idle after you 'closed' it. If the process is still running, steam is still logging hours.
