A Faster Windows Shutdown - Registry Tweaks !!

We can change a lot of windows settings by tweaking the WINDOWS REGISTRY according to our choice. These tweaks can make your windows run faster with improved efficiency & performance. We can user some third party utility (like TWEAKUI) or WINDOWS REGISTRY EDITOR for the tweaking. Here I am giving some simple Registry Tweaks which you can do yourself by using the windows registry editor.

IMPORTANT : Tweaking windows registry can be dangerous if not done properly. In worst case scenario windows may not boot at all or some of your software / applicantion may not work. I do not take any responsibility if any data loss occurs. Proceed at your own risk.

PRECAUTION : Backup your registry or it will be better if you make an Image of your System before proceeding with registry editing.

A Faster Windows Shutdown

Shutting down Windows can take a long time. You can speed this up with the following tweaks in the registry key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop

Change the following String values:
AutoEndTasks=1
HungAppTimeout=4000
WaitToKillAppTimeout=4000
WaitToKillServiceTimeout=4000
