Application exit does not clean process #48

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
In Windows Vista SP1, if I quit WaitZar from the task pan, WaitZar UI 
quite but not the process limiting a new WaitZar run. If kill the process 
from the task manager, it show Warning message (actually it is Fatal 
Error). 

See attach.

From my own experience, Vista caches the process list, and does not update it as
often as it should. Please try waiting 2 or 3 minutes, and then opening WaitZar
again. Report your results here.

I will test this tomorrow, but I have Vista SP2, so the issue might have been 
resolved.

Actually, my report has two problems. 1) exit does not kill the process and 2) 
Vista 
SP1 does't not allow to put on system tray without some right. Run as admin 
solves 
second problem.

My mistake, I'm running SP1.

It does quit the WaitZar process almost immediately. But restarting cause 
"Can't 
switch icon..." warning message error. A new WaitZar process is initiatate 
wihtout 
functioning.

Confirmed: this does not appear on Vista Business w/ SP1. I'll try to find my 
copy of
home premium and install it somewhere to test that...

I'm marking this one fixed too. If this is still a problem, try setting
"alwayselevate" to "yes" in config.txt

My guess is that something is holding up WaitZar if UAC is blocking it (for a 
weird
reason). 

If this problem still persists when the process is elevated, I'll re-open this 
bug.
