Shut down issue, Task Host Window appears.

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

I've had the taskhost shutdown problem for a while now. It doesn't happen every time I shut down, but frequently enough to be annoying.

So I followed your advice and now the problem seems to have disappeared. At least on the latest restart. I'll see how it goes and report back after a number of shutdowns and boots.

Meanwhile: What is this RAC scheduled task thingy, and why does it make the shutdown hang sometimes?

If someone could explain it to me like I'm a twelve year old that would be great.

I downloaded this hotfix to my win 7 sp1 and when I run this fix a pop up tells me it is not aspplicable to my system.

I had this problem, as well as my browser frequently freezing. When I noticed my passwords were no longer being saved, I read that my user account might be corrupt. I created a new user account and deleted the old one, and voila! All better!

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,
