<p>To be able to delete those files you are looking at, you have to open that file with something like Notepad or if the file is too big for that you can use Wordpad. Once you open it with that you will be able to just go to that line and remove what is needed and you should be good to go.</p>

<p>Look for a file named Server_Character_eq2_uisettings.xml in your EQ2 program directory. Open that file in WordPad and look for "<ChatChannels" (it'll be near or at the bottom of the file). Find the lines mentioning the "stuck" channel and delete them completely. You need to do this while not in game, but it should fix your problem.</p>

Log back in and you should have all your channels free. I have done this numerous times. /leaveall and then immediately trying to rejoin channels doesn't work, but camping all the way out to desktop will save your character file, and generally does so without any channels.</p>
