Teststand engine did not finish its cleanup procedure

[Skeptical]

I have a VB.NET application that creates an instance of the TestStand engine and then makes two calls to the GetTestStandPath method. That's all. When I close my application I get an error message saying, "The TestStand engine did not finish its cleanup procedure."

How do I make that go away?

I have tried calling Shutdown and waiting for the UIMsg_ShutdownComplete message. That doesn't work.

I have tried calling GC.Collect and GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers after doing that. I still get that error.

Any thoughts?

Hello Skeptical,

Did you found a solution for your problem in the meantime?

What I did instead was to  simply call the .NET method Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("TestStandPublic64").
