You are probably shutting it down when you still have some programs running. Close all programs by yourself before shutting it down.

Go to Control panel - Add/remove programs and uninstall it from there. If it doesn't work the go to Program Files and search for it's folder and delete it.

You may have damaged your computer by shutting it down improperly.  You must always use the Start &#92; Turn Off Computer, etc. routine to shut it down.  If you still have the original Windows CDs, you could try repairing the system but I'm not a technician.\n\nGood luck!

Try right-clicking the icon in the bottom right corner of the screen.  It should give you a menu with an option to disable.  The program should re-enable itself when you restart.

Simple answer: Yes.\n\n\nA little more complex answer: If you screwed with your registry without knowing what you are doing, do yourself a favor and reinstall windows.  Registry can and will cause a computer to go into shutdown.  If you want to go through some ahssel, try to do a system restore to take you back to before this problem happened

shut down and return?\nOr leave your computer on and return? It could be a whole host of problems. Thats not enough information to really go on.

This could have resulted from virus,So in order to terminate process go to Windows Task Manager ,right click on the process and click End process tree\n\nThen use(Start->Run->type msconfig) then remove the un wanted process by un clicking the unwanted process that boots up every time your system boots.

Go to Acesseriores and go to system restore and restore it to a earlier time when you didn't have the problem.  This should resolve the issue from turning off.

Actually I don't understand these terms. Could you please tell what is really happening in your computer? (like, a program's not opening, windows can't let you in, etc.)\n\nBut usually the source of problem in a computer is a virus. So go get a cleaner.

Some startup application or service is likely causing your computer to not finish starting Windows.\n\nRestart the computer and press F8 until the startup screen appears (before Windows ever loads).  Choose the "Save mode with networking" option.  If you get into Windows, click Start, Run, and type "msconfig".\n\nGo to the Startup tab and uncheck everything in there.  Click "OK".\n\nRestart your computer and it should start right up normally.  After you are in, go back into "msconfig" (described above) and, starting at the top, check off a couple of items.  Then click OK and reboot again.\n\nRepeat this until it doesn't start normally.  Then whatever you checked last will be the culprit.  Either uninstall that app, reinstall it, or leave it unchecked in msconfig.

I did it with a restart in DOS mode or a force delete with some programs. Just make sure that there is no program that run it at that moment.

Did you try "ctrl alt delete" to access or shut down any programs.\n\nyou could right click to close the program \n\nbut your best bet it to run a computer first aid software to check for any bad files that may be infecting your computer.\n\nMy parents had a power failure and they tried those first on both computers those steps worked on one but the other they took for repair and found out it had an internal problem and had to get it repaired.\n\ngood luck.

Well there could be many reasons for this.  One is that you have so many processes running that it takes Windows a lot of time to shut them all down - and/or that one or more of them become non-responsive.  If it is this, then all you'd have to do is wait and it will either eventually shut down or give you the "End Process" screen one or more times.  \n\nIt could also be that your shutdown script got corrupted, somehow, and aborts.  This could be from the reason below.\n\nOne other possibility is that your computer has been infected with a virus that interferes with the shut down process.  \n\nMy suggestion is to try it from Safe Mode (if it shuts down that is).  If it does, get current versions of a few antivirus programs, Adaware, and Spybot Search and Destroy, reboot in Safe Mode and scan with all of those programs.  You should also invest in a good registry cleaner program and run it regularly - believe it or not, your problem could originate from a single registry problem.

If your power supply is faulty or your processor fan is broke your PC will shut down to cool down, but wouldn't necessarily start up again.\nIt sounds like a virus or worm infection.  I would try going into windows in safe mode (F8 function key normally) and see if the system continues to close down.\nIf it is stays on o.k. check you haven't installed a driver or software recently that may be conflicting with Windows.  If this happens you should be able to roll back the driver or system restore to a point where you know your PC was o.k. (In F8 this is the "Last known good configuration")\nIf it shuts down again it may be a virus, have a look on symantec's site for a hotfix for the latest virus/worm,if it is a virus you'll proably need to disable your system restore whilst trying to remove it.  Follow the instructions to remove it carefully so not to destroy your pc further!!
