[Trace Windows 7 boot/shutdown/hibernate/standby/resume issues]

looks like you have notepad open and this takes 5min to close. Also the gpscript.exe hangs. Which group policies do you apply?

something strange just checked task manager and three notepad.exe running but only in processes, not opened notepad.exe today.

there is a logoff GP but I dont seem to be in it.

[Trace Windows 7 boot/shutdown/hibernate/standby/resume issues]

Hi

I have used the tutorial on post 1 to do a trace of my shutdown and produce a XML file (attached). It takes about 5-10 minutes for the PC to shut down. Its a Toshiba C660 Laptop which is fairly new.

Frrom what I can see the delay is in ENDSHELL, GPCLIENT and PROFSVC.

Not entirely sure but I think the main cause is PROFSVC which is the user profile service but I am a bit stuck.

Can anyone advise further ?

thanks
