Customize Windows 7 shutdown time
Hi,
is there any registry hack that can allow me to shutdown windows after "x" mins whenever I click shutdown (or press shutdown button) my system?

Hello Kumar, and welcome to Seven Forums.
Yes, you can create a Shut Down shortcut using the tutorial below to have it shut down after how many minutes you specify.

Thanks. However, I am searching for something that can modify the behavior of the shutdown command itself. I know "WaitToKillServiceTimeout" is used to change the shutdown time for closing the applications. However, when the applications close, the systems shuts down immediately. I need something to delay the shutdown itself when I click on shutdown (or press the shutdown button on the system).
So from what I understand, when you hit the shutdown button the system should kill all the processes but delay the effective shutdown of the system?
Yes... exactly.... so far I could only find the "WaitToKillServiceTimeout" in the registry.... I am searching for a value in the registry that will kill the processes and shutdown the system after the specified time....
I have no idea how to do that, but at least I'm glad I made the problem clear. A person with advanced knowledge on the inner works of the OS should address this problem.
Thanks. I have been researching but so far haven't found any registry value that change the shutdown behavior.
