I hate it when I'm trying to shut down my windows XP and i get that annoying pop up telling me that programs are still running, so I found a way to make windows automatically kill/end the running programs on shutdown. Just open regedit by going to start>run and typing regedit and navigating to HKEY_CURRENT_USER>Control Panel>Desktop directory in the Registry, and then right click on AutoEndTasks and select modify binary data, then change the value to 1.
This is for those friends that tend to get a bit annoying, if you have access to their computer, with this guide you can remove the shut down option from the start menu
1.Go to start>run
2.Type in "Regedit" (without quotation marks)
3.Once in Regedit go to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer
4. find "NoClose", right click and select modify binary data
5. change the data to "NoClose"="DWORD:1"
then enjoy the look on their faces when they cant shut down.
