Log off takes so much time

Hi Bernd,

How to decrease the time when logging off from an admin account to a standard account?
Sometimes its fast but most of the time it takes more than 15 minutes.....

What is happening when you change the User is the following:
- Save the Users current Mixer Settings
- Save the Users current Layout (all windows positions etc.)
- Unload any User specific Media Libs
- If the scheduler (a new program) is just about starting, it also needs to wait until this finishes

So except the last item, actually not much! And even with the last item does 15 minutes really sound strange!
Btw, what should the attached image show?

It's strange indeed!
Will find out which program is in use too, maybe that's the trigger for the long waiting log off...
The picture was shown "please wait, logoff in progress..."

Is still taking so long at your machine?

I closed several things within the Windows 7 Pro Services -> Taskscheduler and that made the log-off procedure a lot faster.
