| | How to increase Windows shutdown speed when you enabled “clear Page File at shutdown”? 
Note that making incorrectly changes to the registry may damage your system; please back up any valued data on your computer.
1) Go to Start menu > Run > and type regedit and click OK.
2) Find following address: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Control \Session Manager \ Memory Management
3) In right side right click on “ClearPageFileAtShutdown”, select Modify and make value of “1”, and Exit from Registry Editor and restart your Computer.

Do you normally need to speed down the shutdown? I dont see the big point. My computer shuts down in 10-15seconds so I probably dont see any problems anyway. But would you mind telling us what your actually doing here, its not enough just to tell us how, it would be nice to know what I am messing around with... Tralalalal - Nqon

You can also use Bootvis, that is a program by Microsoft who makes your whole pc, also your shutdown, faster. It's a great program! Google "Bootvis" a you can download it in a minute.

I posted this before about bootvis: QUOTE Please note that Bootvis.exe is not a tool that will improve boot/resume performance for end users. Contrary to some published reports, Bootvis.exe cannot reduce or alter a system's boot or resume performance. The boot optimization routines invoked by Bootvis.exe are built into Windows XP. These routines run automatically at pre-determined times as part of the normal operation of the operating system. from http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/system/syspe...ot/bootvis.mspx

For Lightning fast shutdowns and bootups.. (i mean to boot in around 5 seconds) use ACPI S3. not all bios' support it, but for those that do, its great. its not a true shutdown. it halts all running programs, shifts the CPU registers to RAM, and powers down everything, all fans off, the front side bus stops (0hz) and the ram is put into an extremely low power state. booting is almost instant, just takes as long as it does my disk to spin up, and monitor to power on.

quijibow, are you talking about hibernating your computer? I know that hibernating does the same thing, but I've never heard it called ACPI S3. I really wish i could hibernate my computer, but there is something wrong with my motherboard, and it will not give power to the graphics card after resuming the computer.

hi, i think anyone who want to implemented this, should have a look at local gpo policy, there have a option that let you clear pagefile when shutdown computer. that will make this safey. however, doing this will make you pagefile in an non-consistent stated. and may be affect the running performance. be have administrative right, then, go start ==> run ==> type mmc, a new mmc console will open, go file ==> add snap-ins == > search a snap-ins call group policy ==> choose local computer. in the console, search for an item called clear pagefile when shutdown.

The safest option is to just Windows shutdown in its own time. Forcing it to shutdown can cause complications later as it forces open programs to exit immediately and would result in possible data loss. The registry setting ClearPageFileAtShutdown is more of a security option. It replaces the data in the page files with zeroes to prevent other processes from accessing the data in the page file. I suppose if you are fine with turning off a security option to increase shutdown speed, you may as well go ahead and tweak it.

ClearPageFileAtShutdown
How To Increase Windows Shutdown Speed
Aside from it being a workaround for certain issues envolving hibernating with particular OS setups (as touched upon earlier in this string), clearing the 'swap' files as this discussion in part addresses, users of company computers who do not tweak the registry (as mentioned) are left open to more readily having their employers see exactly what you've been doing on their pc, almost as easy as simply looking at 'your' MRU list.

Can You Create A Folder Name "con"

the folder from a cmd prompt failed with an error "The directory name is invalid.". This also works
when you try to create a file called "CON", or "CON.". ".CON" shows up the way it should. Somewhere

this is a version of Windows that is definitely not supported anymore, but is the security and
