It appears that since installing the March CU for Sharepoint 2013, the user profile service is no longer working correctly. The status for user syncronization is always in a "Stopping" phase and the event logs are reporting the following every hour... Do I have to take out the entire service and reinstall it, or is their a way to fix it?
