None of the dependent services stop. If you manually stop the dependent services until there are fewer than 13 running, stopping the primary service will correctly stop all the dependent services.

A fix to this problem is in development, but has not been regression-tested and may be destabilizing in production environments. Microsoft does not recommend implementing this fix at this time.
