Hi guys,

My PC always hangs on shutdown. Seems to restart OK.

The PC will close all processes, get past the closing screen, My monitors will turn off, but then my tower will just sit there doing nothing. Sometimes for up to 5 minutes before it will finally decide to turn off.
This happens every time I shut down the PC whether there are updates or not.

 

Was hoping someone might know what the cause would be.

 

Cheers,
        Aaron

I am guessing it is some task that is waiting to finish.

If your motherboard was older I'd suggest replacing the cmos battery.

 

How long has this been going on?

Probably the last few months approx. Was lightning fast prior.
I've only left it for so long because I've been busy with other things, but now I'm stuck inside (Yay Corona Virus). So I wanna fix it.
I don't wanna do a fresh install just yet if it's something simple.
