Research direction

Start by reproducing the Windows Editor unit tests through GitHub Actions and inspect the test run when it stalls. Determine the source of the intermittent deadlock; done means repeated runs no longer hang until the 120-minute timeout.

Description

bug topic:buildsystem

Seems to be a recurring issue where the unit tests for the Windows Editor build will randomly stall when running through the GitHub Actions, causing them to fail after 120 minutes.
It is not consistent, but seems to be happening more in recent months.
