How to Clear the Windows Paging File at Shutdown

If you see a lot of Userenv/1517, Userenv/1524 or Userenv/1500 errors in the
Event Viewer, download and install the User Profile Hive Cleanup Service.
This decreased my shutdown time a bunch. Takes any where from 10 to 20
seconds to shutdown.
C:\Program Files\UPHClean\uphclean.exe is added.
The User Profile Hive Cleanup service gets added to Services and
uphclean.exe will run all the time. I am one that doesn't like to have any
extra services running, but I am sold on UPHClean.

To automatically install it (you need uphclean-setup.msi):
- Double click the setup.msi
The service is set to automatically start when the computer boots so you
will not need to start it manually.
