1. Open the Start Menu.


2. In the white line (Start Search) area, type regedit and press Enter.


3. If prompted, click on Continue in the UAC prompt.


4. In regedit, go to: (See screenshot below)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control


5. In right pane, right click on WaitToKillServiceTimeout and click Modify.


6. Type in a number between 2000-20000 (2-20 seconds) and click OK. (See screenshot below)

NOTE: The default time is 20000. I use 2000 and have not had any problems. Your experience may vary.


7. Close regedit.

NOTE: Ifyou have problems with your computer shutting down to quickly with thevalue you set in step 6, then repeat step 6 above to increase the time until Vista does shutdown properly.
