Re: [Puppet Users] Windows 8.1 Puppet Crashing

I am using the "start command prompt with puppet" command. I was able
to
verify this happening on both a physical machine and on a vm.

However, after my initial question, we obtained and installed the release
version of windows 8.1 and this seems to no longer be an issue. Perhaps
something funky was happening with Windows 8.1 preview.

Thanks for your time.
