Hi
I'm not sure what the exact problem is.
But when we run open cover with mstest we sometimes get it hanging on our build machines after mstest finishes
Looking at task manager
- I see opencover.console.exe at ~95% CPU
- mstest.exe is still there but not doing anything. It has already given the test results file and finished outputing to stdout.
- no expected stdout from opencover yet.

We only seem to have this issue on our build machines. Main difference is they are Windows Server 2008 R2. We can reproduce this manually on our build machines (they are generally clones of the same machine so have same environment). Developer machines running windows 7 don't have this issue.
There could be other differences - not sure what might be important.

Not sure what the way forward to solve this issue is. You probably don't have enough to go on.
Would a dump file of the hanging process be useful.
