Windows 10: New Windows 10 Slow Shutdown

I got a genuine Windows for my laptop a few days back. I was using Ubuntu until now. I decided to switch because my hard disk crashed and I had to replace it. So here it is. A fairly new laptop 2 years, 12GB RAM and i5 7th Gen processor. I installed a Crucial MX500 SSD 500GB as my secondary memory now and I installed Windows. Everything seems perfect, until the point, I come to shutdown. It is worth comparing that shutdown time takes way much more than the time to boot up. Obviously SSD would be insanely fast. But I am curious about the problem regarding shutdown. I am attaching a few screenshots about my OS Build and the Event viewer log. Please let me know if there is any long term issue because of this.

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Windows 10 very slow on shutdown

Hello,

I'm having problems shutting down my HP EliteBook after upgrade to Windows 10. It takes up to a couple of minutes before its shutdown. With the previous installed Windows 8 it was not an issue.

With searching i found some regedit functions and I checked this, but still very slow on shutdown.

Who can suggest something else?
