Ensure Proper Windows Shutdown

Most of the time when we try to shutdown windows, a non responsive programme or something running in the background refuses to close and delays the process. Its really frustrating. We can remove the delay by tweaking the registry for a smooth shutdown.

(Backup your REGISTRY FILE before implementing the following tips. Use the tips at your own risk. I will not be responsible for any mistake that may occur)

1. Copy the following lines written in between the horizontal lines and paste in notepad by saving the file with filename as "regtweak.reg"
2. After that double click on the file to import it into the registry file.
3. Restart your computer and you are done.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management]
"ClearPageFileAtShutdown"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop]
"AutoEndTasks"="1"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control]
"WaitToKillServiceTimeout"="1000"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Note : Some antivirus may detect the registry edit which is normal.
