User(s) can reproduce this bug

We are using Windows Server 2008 R2 and Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate (Update 1). When two users log on and one already has the Coded UI Test Builder open, the other can't open it. Instead an error message prompts to the user saying that he should close the Coded UI Test Builder first (which he never opened, but it's referring to the first user's CUIT Builder session).

If the two users are able to use Visual Studio simultaneously, they should also be able to use Coded UI Test Builder.

Details (expand)

Visual Studio 2012

1. Log on with one user to a Windows Server 2008 R2 machine with RDP
2. Start Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate and open the Coded UI Test Builder
3. Log on with another RDP session to that server with a different user
4. Start Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate and open the Coded UI Test Builder
