Computer won't shutdown

Go through the same procedure as in "COMPUTER TAKES A LONG TIME etc." This will minimize the number of programs that Windows has to close before shutting down.

Click "Start" then "Run" In open, type "msconfig." When the System Configuration Utility appears, click "Advanced." Put a check mark in "Disable Fast Shutdown. That usually fixes it. Incidentally, Instead of unplugging a stubborn computer, holding the on/off button in for about 10 seconds will usually shut it down.
