original title:  Shut down of Computer

When I shut the computer down a Task Host Window appears and I have to Force the Shutdown, how do I get rid of the Task Host Window?

If I press Cancel, nothing happens and I have to click on Yes to get the computer to Shut down.

Thank you,

Mrs KE Jonker

    Hey,

    All i do is start the task manager, go to process,

    Right click and end process on "Task Host" <-- the app that wants to be shut down.. i havnt yet decided if im just gonna fibnd the file location and files and manually delete them.. i have not yet countered a problem by ending the process "Task Host"   <-- it doesnt reload or appear again and when i shutt down that hang in isnt there no more... i mean... i am looking into creating a routing file soo it automactically does this everytime on start up... I'll will keep you posted on it all..

    As i said.. All i do is #1 Boot my computer up.. #2 ctrl-alt-del #3 bring up task manager #4 process tab #5 End process to Task Host #6 Use computer like i always have #7 Shut down after using computer (No pop up window or force shut down via to Task Host is prompting or ending task)

    :D

    Guaranteed Solution

    Go to task scheduler, choose microsoft=>RAC, it is triggered every hour, just change trigger, stop the option of running very hour. then go to taskmanager, end the process of "taskhost".

    DONE

    So it turns out that it actually didn't work for me.
