Problem conclusion
The underlying mechanism for retrieving output from a configuration check and for setting up a PX job run writes its data to a capture* temporary file under DSEngine/UVtemp. On Windows, a retry loop was added in this code to handle instances where this file is still in use when attempting to remove it. This helps ensure that the entire contents are read and that the file is cleaned up.
