Topic: Why does the Windows® operating system stop responding during
shutdown?
The Windows operating system may not shut down properly for many reasons,
including incompatible or conflicting drivers, damaged files, or non-responsive
hardware. For troubleshooting information, you can search Windows Help.
Pressing Ctrl+Alt+Delete twice consecutively, may result in the loss of data
from files that are currently open.
