To work around this issue, you have to end the Svchost.exe process that hosts the BITS Compact Server service.
Note Ending the Svchost.exe process also ends other services that run within the same Svchost.exe process. You can run the tasklist -svc command at a command prompt to check which services share the same Svchost.exe process with the BITS Compact Server service.
