After installation of TS 2012 - shutdown time around 16 minutes.

Problem after installation of LabVIEW and TestStand it will take around 16 minutes to shutdown my laptop. Problem may be in TestStand 2012, see below.

 

Laptop Lenovo T520 Intel i7 processor running Windows 7 Enterprice 64 bit with Service Pack 1.

 

Installation procedure of Development versions (all installed with NI defaults):
1. LabVIEW 2011 SP1
2. TestStand 2010
3. TestStand 2010 SP1
4. LabVIEW 2012
Shutdown time: less than 15 seconds
5. TestStand 2012
Shutdown time: around 16 minutes. The screen changes to the Windows 7 logo and mouse cursor still visible after 9 minutes it changes to "Shutting down" and mouse cursor are removed and after 16 minutes it turns off.
6. Uninstalled TestStand 2012
Shutdown same
7. Uninstalled TestStand Version Selector and TestStand 2010 & 2010 SP1
Shutdown same
8. Uninstalled TestStand Version Selector (still installed, maybe another version?), NI Session Manager & NI TDM Add-In 3.4
Shutdown same
9. Uninstalled all the rest NI (LV 2010, 2010 SP1, 2012 and MAX ++). Why are not all TestStand packages removed above in 6, 7 and 8 - could see some TestStand packages were removed in 9?
Shutdown time: less than 15 seconds

What teststand packages did you see removed in step 9? It should already have been uninstalled by that time. Why do you think it was teststand when the problem still happened after it was uninstalled?

I don't see this problem until after the installation of TestStand 2012 and I don't remember what TestStand does not uninstall and was left until I uninstalled all NI packages.
