Modifying Deployments and freezing....

When modifying a deployment, in this case it was the Infrastructure Design Suite Preimum 2014, it will basically freeze. i.e. Tools > Create & Modify a deployment.  The only way to get your control of your computer is to use the Task Manager exit out of the deployment.

In this particular scenario, the deployment was created on COMPUTER A and the deployment files were on COMPUTER B.  When modifying the deployment on COMPUTER A, it would freeze.  

In this case, the workaround was to use Windows Remote Desktop from COMPUTER A to COMPUTER B to modify the deployment locally.
