    Something is not exiting gracefully and you need to find out what it is.

    It could be something legitimate such as an antivirus program or some

    other ill-behaved software or it could be malware.

     

    1. First make sure the computer is completely virus/malware-free:

    2. If the machine is clean, go through this shutdown troubleshooter:
