Introduction:
When I shutdown my PC, every time, a window appears - End Program - Explorer.EXE. Why ?
Somehow the explorer.exe process is not shutting down quickly enough for your session timeout setting. This is generally not an issue of much concern, but you will be able fix it with this tweak. My simple way to fix this is this tweak to the registry, save this code in notepad with .reg extension then just double click it
Code: Select all
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[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"
- Download shutdown.reg.
- Double click shutdown.reg.
- Accept to add the information to the registry.
- Then reboot and you will never get these error anymore
