W7 - users logging off takes forever
Hello. I'm running W7 64 bit home premium with SP1. All has been ok until last week. For no apparent reason, when selecting the Log Off option the usual spinning circle and Logging off... screen appears, but the actual log off either takes 5mins plus and is eventually successful, or the screen just stays up and after 20+mins I switch off at the button. The Event Viewer doesn't show any errors for those times. Sometimes the Pc will totally freeze for a couple of minutes usually while we're using internet explorer 9. Then we have the problem. I have used Windows system restore to a date before the problem was evident, but the problem still happens. There have been some automatic Windows updates since the system restore. Has anyone any ideas for a solution or just why this is happening? Thanks.
