Good day, everyone. I'd been having this problem since the day after I reinstalled windows on my PC. FYI, I've updated my os as well, thinking this would fix the problem, but it didn't. Here are the things that I've tried so far:

• chkdsk /f
• update windows
• sfc /scannow

I've been looking forward to fixing this problem. It's very annoying. Thank you very much!

Error Code 00XB10999

It worked!

It was DV.exe (x32) and I removed after located its folder from the task manager and ended the task.

Thanks so much!!

 

Mystery app preventing Windows 10 shutdown after update.

Thanks for your reply. That's the thing. It just says "This app", but does not name the app (no clicking or hovering gives a clue). When I go to the task manager, the only app listed that is running is the task manager.

What I am saying is that since XP, occasionally you could get an app running when restarting or logging off and would be prompted to wait for it to close or force it closed to continue to log off or restart. It is no big deal really as long as you can force
it to shut down.

 

Lets try a quick diagnostic. Can you do a clean boot and when you do it does the task manager behavior persist. (Clean boot- non of your apps)

 

I did what you said. I found out that it only happens when I tether my phone to my PC. Is there a fix to this?

 

Great. Progress. While it is likely not a phone specific issue would you mind sharing make and model. Professor Google always gives better answers with better questions.
