I have just been reading about resetting the wait to kill setting in regedit
http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/70567-shutdown.html
HKEY-Local-Machine-System-current control set,Control
Wait to kill service timeout.
Default is 20000 (20sec) mine was set at 2000 (2sec)
I read that it shouldn't be set less than 5000 (5sec)
Has anyone had a problem setting it to less than 5 seconds?
