Can't close a "verifying" core services UI agent

CoreServiceUIAgent keeps popping up for Adobe and EA Games.

Both have been deleted and reinstalled.


There is no "right click" to remove from dock.

I cannot right click to open EA Games, either.


I've read through all the advice and none of it is applicable to me yet. I don't have the suggested options for solutions (like right-clicking).


The same box appears 5-10 times and it makes my taskbar suuuuper long. It is also just very irritating because EA Games works just fine. So does Adobe.


How do I get it to go away??

That "suuuuper long" box is the Dock, not a taskbar.

Use the Dock on Mac - Apple Support


If a simple reboot of your Mac doesn’t fix things, see if the problem still happens in safe mode.

How to use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support 


Safe mode will often correct weird behavior by forcing the OS to do disk repair, clear caches and other housekeeping and temporarily disables third-party mods.


Does the same thing happen while in Safe mode?

You can exit safe mode by restarting your Mac normally, then reevaluate the problem.


You might also check the Adobe and EA support forums for assistance.
