License already in use after killing process

In some random cases it happens that my TestComplete is hanging.
The stop button is not responding to anything, so I need to use the task manager to kill the process.

After killing the process and starting TestComplete again it tells me the license is already in use.
If I log in with my credentials it still keeps telling me that.

Right now the only thing that works to recognise the license, is a complete reboot.

There is probably some semaphore file that is created upon start and deleted upon a normal closing of TestComplete, so deleting that file could fix it, but when it is unknown how it locks the license I am forced to reboot is every time.

 

  • Kill the following processes, and then you may have to wait a few minutes, until the server side releases the license that you consumed.
