The problems of performance of Windows are a much discussed topic throughout the blogosphere: tutorials and articles that teach how to speed up Windows, there are many in circulation so that it is often difficult to get an idea of their real value and their actual reliability, so I think it is best to proceed with caution (by making the appropriate backup or creating a restore point) before you make any kind of assistance, especially if it has to do with changes to the registry.

In this article, for example, we'll see how we can speed up the shudown of Windows with a simple and safe modification of the registry. The trick is to decrease the waiting time set to default to 20 seconds for the closure of services and programs running, after which Windows starts the shutdown procedure forced:


  • Start "regedit.exe"
  • Posizionatevi in the following folder:
      HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Control 
  • Identify the key
      WaitToKillServiceTimeout 

    diminuitene and the default "20000" (20 sec.) bringing it to a lower value which is not less than "5000" (5

    seconds)

Obviously, the benefits from this change will vary greatly depending on the software installed on your PC and its hardware features.
