Win7 ProE crashes on register after setting cache loc

I'm having another Windows 7 issue.

I have an existing startup script for testing new maintenance builds of ProE. Because I don't want to stomp all over my Production cache, I redirect the cache to another folder. All of this worked on XP. Now on Window 7, ProE crashes when I try to register the server.

My startup script looks like this:
set PTC_WF_ROOT="%USERPROFILE%\pro\WF4_test\PDMLink_Cache\PTC\ProENGINEER"
"P:\wf4-m200-64\proeWildfire 4.0\bin\proe.exe"

The windows short cut has the start in dir set to %USERPROFILE%\pro\WF4_test

After crashing, something is still active, because I can't delete the start in directory because Windows says "The action can't be completed because the folder or a file in it is open in another program. Close the folder or file and try again."

If I log out and log back in I can delete the folder. Not sure what process was left hanging by the crash because xtop is not running.

Stumped.
