Dawnstar Inn quest stays active

the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim

I have received the bounty mission from the innkeeper in Dawnstar to kill some giant. I have promptly did so, but after getting the reward from Jarl it still says to pick up my reward from him, but the quest is complete. It happened to me two times now and it bothers me to see it in the quest list.

Is there a console command to list all active quest IDs so I can set it to completed? Any another method to get rid of it will be appreciated too.

In my game, there are a few quests; all in the miscellaneous part that do not go away, some are to receive bounty payments, some are to kill beasts or giants etc, and others are random things also.

Why these happen I'm not sure, but just to let you know - it's not just your game, it is happening all around. It could be something to do with quests crossing between others and so something has gone wrong, something is missing or it just doesn't know it's been completed, even though it has. It's hard to explain.

The answer I do not know, so all this was actually a waste of your time, but I do hope its somewhat reassuring...
