Hanging Application prevents Win7 64 Bit from Shutdown/Reboot and View Agent already terminated by the OS

Dear all

We have ViewAgent 5.3 installed on our virtual Desktops, which is necessary to connect from View Client. Now sometimes a Windows application hangs on OS shutdown/reboot request. Because on requesting a reboot/shutdown Windows send a terminate Signal to all processes it can happen that the View Agent is already stopped when the Application hanging dialog appears on the users Desktop. The virtual Desktop will not shutdown or reboot because there is still the open Dialog asking the user to force the Termination of the application. The ViewAgent is already stopped, so the user can not reconnect to his virtual desktop

How can I make sure that ViewAgent is one of the last processes terminated by Windows, so the can at least see a application hanging Dialog? At the Moment the only Workaround is to connect to the VM console at confirm the application hanging Dialog manually. I could also use "HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\AutoEndTask=1" but this Forces the Termination of applications with unsaved documents as well. So I would rather priorize the Termination of the processes during shutdown and would priorize the ViewAgent as lowest.

Any ideas how to achieve this?

Any help appreciated!

Regards RLI
