I am using Windows 7 Home Premium. When I shut down my computer why does the screen show this:
Before shutting down I’m close all programs.
Solution:
From Windows Seven Forum:
1) This is not a problem. It’s actually a good thing because Windows is waiting for programs to shut down and disk buffers to be flushed to disk. If it didn’t do that you’d be at nasty risk for data losses.
2) Some programs do take a while to close off… they have to save settings, close disk files, shut down network ports, release memory, etc. This too is perfectly normal behaviour.
Inside windows when you do a Shutdown every running program receives a WM_CLOSE message which initiates program shutdown. Right after that they receive a WM_POWER message telling them the system is about to shut down… if the program needs more time, it can delay answering the WM_POWER message and conduct it’s business shutting down. When ALL programs have answered the WM_POWER message the system shuts off.
Really guys… this isn’t something you should be worried about…
