Stop and restart prevented by the task host window

Hello world.

I'm having currently a problem each time I try to shut down or restart my laptop. I have the following message:

«Closing 1 app and restart»
Task host window
Task host stops background tasks.

Windows cannot close it, and I'm finally started on the desktop, but with all my applications closed and even some features of pilot missing (for example multitouch). I can't use the Task Manager as it crashes whenever I open it. By clicking on "restart still" does not resolve the issue and I think that causes a crash (cannot be 100% sure, only tried once).

Does anyone have any suggestions? I am pleased to provide you with more information if necessary.

  • waiting for the task to the end host window.

    Hi Sanaaalsadouni,

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community forums.

    The TASKHOST is a generic process, which acts as a host for the processes that are running DLL instead of exe files. Up TASKHOST checks the part Services of the registry to construct a list of services focused on the DLLS it needs to load, then load them.

    I suggest you try the procedure described in the article and see if it helps.

  • How to start, stop and restart the task

    Hi all
    Need advice on what is the right way to start, stop, and restart a Java task?

    I tried with Executors.newCachedThreadPool () or fixedThreadPool(), however I could not present the task once. My program crashed when I tried again the task again after a shutdownnow command()

    Tasks are designed to be run once. If you want to restart features, use a service:
    http://docs.Oracle.com/JavaFX/2/API/JavaFX/concurrent/service.html

    Service I posted in the following thread shows how to proceed:
    Multithreading

    Use of executors is unnecessary because a Service encapsulates the management of execution threads (although you can set your own liquidator on the service if you really need). Everything you need to do is use the start of the service, cancel, restart, and reset if necessary. If you do not use the cancel method, then you must ensure that your service is properly interrupt the current to cancel it for function, as you expect.

  • 1 program still needs to be closed: (waiting for) task host window's task to stop execution and stopping tasks that are already running

    Hello

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.
    Windows, then closing, checks all open programs. If there is, it sends a request for the program to close and wait until the program closes safely, to avoid any loss of data. But, Windows is waiting for some specified
    If you are sure that none of the programs are obviously open, you can try the following steps:
    Press Windows key + r, Type regedit and pres enter. If UAC prompts, click Yes. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE-> expand System-> expand CurrentControlSet-> click on command (exapnd no do this). When you click (or select) control, you can see WaitToKillServiceTimeout. Double-click it to change the value. Set the value to 500 or less than that. Click Ok, and then close the registry editor. Now, restart the PC. If the problem persists, stop and try again and check.
    Be careful with registry access as incorrect values or remove the unknown keys can prevent Windows to start and it will fix it.

    When I try to delete anything out of my windows mail Inbox stops and restarts the imedietly.

    Try to compact and repair the database (see www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).  There is likely an inconsistency between what is really there and what think the database is where and who must reconcile the two.  So beware of interference from antivirus software which can cause these issues (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3).

  • What is the difference between the stop and restart?

    What is the difference between the stop and restart?  I feel that stopping closed all processes, completely erases RAM memory and clears the cache of the processor.  I need to know if 1) this is a correct assumption and 2) which is better for daily maintenance of the system.  Thank you in advance.

    Hello Jeremy_1976,

    Your support when the judgment is correct. Basically, it stops the process and completely turns off your computer. Reboot, however, temporarily your PC stops, then turn it on again. This happens usually when Windows updates are installed. After installation, the system is restarted (rebooted) so that any update has been successfully installed and works as it should. You can be a little mixed upward the reboot and the hibernation. Reboot is, as I have indicated previously, basically a reboot of your machine. Ultimately, your PC is on again after a reboot. However, hibernation, stores all data currently in memory in a special file, then the PC turns off. When you then turn on your PC, that is, coming out of hibernation, hibernation files is used to restore the status of the PC than when you initially put into hibernation. In other words all the programs you had open before will automatically open and be ready to use hibernation.

    Hibernation or sleep for that matter is for short-term use. It is normal in Hibernate, or sleep if you want to be away from your PC for half an hour or so. If you leave more than I suggest you stop completely.

    A point to remember about hibernation is that, if you use put into hibernation, you can't, once you get out after hibernation, install programs or updates. You have to stop and restart normally to do.
