smpwin32.exe not unloading

[JD Kromkowski]

smpwin32.exe doesn’t seem to be unloading on every shut down. Even though both Personal and IDE are shut down. I still find smpwin32.exe as running process in task manager. I’ve seen up to 3 copies running! It’s just to early for me to figure out under what circumstances this occurs. Just now, I opened Personal. Did nothing and exited. ALT-CTR-DEL to look at Task Manager and there it is. I don’t shut it (simwin32) down, but shut down Task Manager and wait a full minute to see if its just slow. When I restart Task Manager, it is still there.

I found that too. It appears that a recent change just before release of
Personal caused this problem. I have tracked it down today, and it will be
in the final release that should be up by Monday. This appears to occur if
there is no form open or no table open in record view.

Ciao, Neil
