Happen to have edited the registry to delete the pagefile at shutdown?
Undo that.
Otherwise - check the event log to see if anything is having trouble
shutting down.
Scan your system for adwatre/spyware and anything that may be running in the
background you just don't need running in the background.
Of course - dependent on your system specs (not given) - that may be normal
or even quick. We don't know.

If ClearPageFileAtShutdown is set to 1, shutdown takes a *long* time.
Check this registry key...
Start | Run | Type: regedit | Click OK |
Navigate to...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\
Session Manager\Memory Management
Value Name: ClearPageFileAtShutdown
Data Type: REG_DWORD
Value Data: Set to 0
0 = No, do not clear it
1 = Yes, clear it

Clear Page File on Exit - Undo
Click on Undo
clearpageundo.reg is the file that you want. clearpageundo.reg sets the
value to 0.

If you experience slow logoff (with Saving your settings for most of the
time while logging off), you are having profile unload problems.
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.
