This hack will effectively speed up your shut down time.
1. Click Start > Run, then type regedit, followed by enter.
This is the registry. Don't touch it beyond what I tell you to, or else you might do something really harmful to your computer.
2. Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop. Select WaitToKillAppTimeout and set the value to 1000. (1 second)
3. Select the HungAppTimeout value and set it to 1000 as well.
4. Navigate to HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop. Set the WaitToKillAppTimeout and HungAppTimeout values to 1000.
5. And, finally, Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control select the WaitToKillServiceTimeout value and set that to 1000 as well.
