How do I restart a mission when the abort mission button is disabled?

My mission bugged out as my officer wall-cracked and killed an enemy before my quest updated (as the gate was closed), effectively stranding me at 96% of the quest, being unable to kill enough enemies to progress to 100%.

I've already filed a bug report and asked a GM for help, but it doesn't look like I'm going to get anything from them any time soon. How can I restart?

    I had the same thing happen in one of the Jem'Hadar starting missions.

    I figured I was only level 2, I deleted the character and started over. Probably not the answer you wanted, but it will be a whole lot quicker then waiting for Support to get to your ticket. :disappointed:
    Insert witty signature line here.

    When you log out and wait for a while (15ish minutes) the instance will be closed and you are back in sector space. Then you should be able to resume from the last 'checkpoint' which hopefully was before the bug

    This is what I do as well if I get stuck like that. I'll swap to another character and play awhile, then go back to the other one and they'll be in sector space.
    Now a LTS and loving it.
    Just because you spend money on this game, it does not entitle you to be a jerk if things don't go your way.
    I have come to the conclusion that I have a memory like Etch-A-Sketch. I shake my head and forget everything. :D

    Just press beam up to your ship

    sorry mate, but if you looked at the pic, it shows the option to beam to ship as not available.

    It is also over two years old pig-3.gif​​

    I can't take it anymore! Could everyone just chill out for two seconds before something CRAZY happens again?!
