How satisfied are you with this reply? Thanks for your feedback, it helps us improve the site. In reply to A. User's post on August 27, Thx for the response Navneet Wouldn't it be fantastic if Windows could shut down all running services in that time : I then progressively re-enabled most of the remaining MS services and got to a point where the shutdown was taking 45 secs and then found that disabling only the Home Group services would drop it to 33 secs.
After two days, the laptop was back to taking close to 1. I haven't had time to go through the motions of trying to id the culprit service but repeated some of the prelim tests - in diagnostic mode with most services disabled, it shutsdown in 12 secs.
Disabled the non MS services and it is 33 secs A log of service shutdowns during the shutdown process would make things easier but I'll repeat the process of systematically disabling services again - unless anyone has any other ideas? This is a Lenova SL series laptop. I'll do some tests over the next couple of days and revert the findings.
In reply to Robfly's post on October 6, The laptop has not had any further issues since. My Windows 10 takes age to shut down.. Already has consumed my 60 mins and still busy now I'm writing this reply on another machine.
And this is not the first time. What a horrible OS.. After exiting the sidebar, it again was taking forever to shut down and I had to turn off the computer. I started the computer in Safe Mode several times and it shut down without any problems.
Posted 05 August - PM. Click on Startup tab. In case of laptop , make sure, you do NOT disable any keyboard, or touchpad entries. Click Services tab. Put checkmark in Hide all Microsoft services Click Disable all. Click OK. Restart computer in Normal Mode. If you use different firewall, than Windows firewall, turn Windows firewall on, just for this test, since your regular firewall won't be running. If you use Windows firewall, you're fine. Try to shut down computer and let me know, how it went.
Posted 06 August - AM. I did as you said and it had no problems shutting down. By the way, I have only found that it has this problem after the computer has been left on all night. Posted 06 August - PM. OK, now you need some time and a lot of patience to investigate possible culprit. Go back to "msconfig" and re-enable ONE of the services, you just disabled. Restart computer, try to shut it down. Went fine? Re-enable next service.
I suggest, you start with F-Secure. Download and run this and see whether you discover something. Do this before you kill the loop. Just wanted to say "Thank You" to whs. Thanks whs. My Dell Vista was caught in a 'loop' too. Your simple solution cured my longstanding problem.
Me too had the endless shutdown in Vista on a Vaio laptop. FMZ how did you solve you problem, I mean if your pc taking forever to shut down, how did you solve it. Welcome dadarex, follow the thread from the beginning and try ALL the suggestions posted. Especially WHS. If it fails please start a new topic. My windows vista also won't shut down. You can follow the question or vote as helpful, but you cannot reply to this thread.
I have the same question 8. Report abuse. Details required :. Cancel Submit. The Windows Firewall is adequate for most people.
