My desktop suddenly will not shutdown; no recent updates. Win-7, 64
Today I ran xxclone to clone my spare drive and all went well. This afternoon I went to shutdown and it logged off, the shutting down window displayed and then it just sat there fat, dumb and unhappy. I can shut it down with the button, but that's to old fashion way.
After reading reams of posts here and elsewhere it seem like this problem is completely baffled the entire guru population because I have tried many remedies with no success. The typical "fix it" MS routines says nothing is wrong. sfc /scannow has no errors. In fact everything I do draws a blank.
Now. I've been there, done that for 57 years wit these computers and their predecessors, and with a window with "shuting down" on it tells me nothing, even if I look at the logs. Maybe my PC has developed a hardware ill?
