I'm experiencing long shutdown times in Windows 7 Professional on newly built machines. After joining to a domain, they take over ten minutes to shut down. There is almost no software installed besides VNC and Office 2010. I ran a shutdown trace with Windows Performance Recorder and generated a graph of what's running during these long shutdowns. Most of the shutdown processes occur within the first minute or so and then wininit.exe (blue) and System (orange).
So how do I go about reducing shutdown times in this scenario?
Answer
look at the summary of the disk graph. I can see you have a lot of disk IO.
Maybe you clear the pagefile at shutdown.
To check it, open regedit, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management, locate the value ClearPageFileAtShutdown and make sure the value is set to 0.
This can cause such a slowdowns.
