This may be coming from Wine and not SWTOR.

Can you try the following after the program terminates:

[code]

ps -ef | grep wine
[/code]

and see if there is any Wine processes running.

If there are, please run
[code]
wineserver -k
[/code]
to stop them.  Do not use the standard 'kill' or 'killall' commands if
you can avoid them.  Using wineserver -k leaves Wine in a more stable
condition.

What did you use to attempt this?  There are several 'safe' programs
for 'shrinking' NTFS partitions.  Some versions of Linux come with one
or two of them.  Backing up your data is always recommended before
using any of them.
