I'm running 7 on my Dell Mini which has been upgraded to 2GB RAM and shut down is taking anywhere between 30-40 seconds. Checking the Event Viewer shows a lot of Event ID 200 entries, but very little information in them to allow me pinpoint exactly what is causing the issue. Any ideas on what I can do to improve it?

Edit: Here's one of the entries from Event Viewer.

those both values are too high:

<Data Name="ShutdownPreShutdownNotificationsTime">7932</Data>

it takes 8 seconds to notify the running programs, that Windows wants to shutdown

<Data Name="ShutdownKernelTime">13190</Data>

this is the time which Windows needed to shutdown the rest (devices, drivers and windows itself)

follow this guide:

http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=117154

to trace the shutdown process. Open the resulting etl file and look if you can see which applications need a long time to close correctly and if you can see why the kernel shutdown takes some time.

But you have to use the WPT 4.6 from the Windows 7 SDK. The version 4.1.1 from the linked page doesn't work on Windows 7.

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
