"Windows is Shutting Down" - screen delay hack?

  • Thread starter Thread starter Charlie
  • Start date Start date
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\WaitToKillServiceTimeout
The value is in milliseconds, so multiply the desired # of literal seconds by
1000 and enter that value

And

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WaitToKillAppTimeout
The value is in milliseconds, so multiply the desired # of literal seconds by
1000 and enter that value

And

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\HungAppTimeout
The value is in milliseconds, so multiply the desired # of literal seconds by
1000 and enter that value

And

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\AutoEndTasks
Set to 1 or 0 to indicate on or off

ALL 4 values are REG_SZ (string values)

BUT, you should give Windows XP enough time to do its little clean-up and
shut-down tasks!

| What is the registry hack for decreasing the time WindowsXP Home sits at
| this screen?
