PC wont shut down

CrAsHnBuRnXp · Nov 18, 2012, 10:34 PM

So I purchased Winzip Driver Updater to update all of my drivers in one swoop because Im lazy and didnt really want to look. I figured the app was legit because its from Winzip and it seems to do a damn fine job. However, now mine and my dads computer wont shut down. It sits at the "Shutting Down" screen and refuses to go away until you reset.

Wondering if anyone had any ideas as to what could be the problem.

The only thing Winzip Driver Updater found was bluetooth drivers, video, chipset, and things like that. Nothing out of the norm.

Thanks guys!

Could be a driver install that has never completed.
Also, try looking at event viewer and see if you can get any clues.

You can try this fix--> Make a computer that is running Windows 7 shut down or sleep
