Screen Sharing is paused by Remote Computer I think are you on to something.. at home I remoted from one PC to another and brought up UAC, which was set to never notify, and the screen hung. Next I cleared that and remoted again and brought up Task manager and it again hung. Same with trying to install or uninstall pgms. For now I'll just avoid doing these things. Strange thing is I was able to bring up a CMD window and do a shutdown restart thinking that would clear it up but it said "Screen Sharing is paused by remote computer" Thanks for the follow up and if you have other things to try let me know
