What is the command line that you are using for executing your test?  Examine it and check to see if you have the "/exit" or "/e" switch on the command line.  That switch will have TestExecute exit after it completes a test run.  Without the switch, the behavior you are experiencing is what I'd expect.

I tried executing from command line without the caret (not using the batch file) and the problem persists.
