Windows XP Tweak - Faster Shutdown
2008-05-10 17:35:00 by PCWizKid in PCWizKid's Tech Talk - Tips, Tweaks and News for Windows Vista, XP, Linux and Mac
 
Make Windows XP shutdown faster with a quick registry tweak.

In less than 60 seconds you can do a registry change that decreases the waiting period that Windows XP takes when you initiate the shutdown command.

I put a quick video tutorial together which shows you the steps

Notes from Video:
Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControl Set/Control.
Click on the "Control" Folder.
Select "WaitToKillServiceTimeout"
Double click on it and set a value lower than 1000.
