provide specifics)

How long does it hang? (or does it totally halt closing?)
If it's only 10-20 seconds, I'd live with it.

One possible, are you trying to run 2 competing malware-specific
security apps *at startup*? This often cause issues like this. The
problem is that some do play nicely with others, some don't. There's no
good list of which will/won't, and it changes all the time.

That's not uncommon on security software. There's a lot of "stuff"
running in the background that needs to shut down in a specific order.

As with many Windows apps (and *^& windows in general) uninstalling and
reinstalling may improve or fix this. If you have any custom exclusion
lists, etc save them as textfiles before you uninstall.

To uninstall, always use the application's own removal tool that's
downloaded as a separate app from the vendor's website (if available).
It's the most current, and better than the uninstall that comes with it.

The next best is a good standalone uninstaller like Revo Uninstaller,
and I'd recommend installing Revo instead of the (next best) "uninstall
that comes with it" or (last choice) Windows "Add-Remove Programs".

You are in luck, SAS has an uninstaller:

Pick which version of windows and proceed.

Just me, but always do a reboot before reinstalling.

Put your custom exclusions (if any) back in, should be good.
