Program manager prevents shut down

I first wrote about this problem in AUGUST of 2015! I have followed the steps and suggestions on this thread, as well as others I had found from people with the same issue. The message still shows up, and I have been keeping track over the last couple
of weeks when I shut down. It takes from 3 to 10 seconds from when the message shows for my PC to shut down. I can't believe that 6 months after it was first noticed that there hasn't been some suggestion, patch or information given that could correct this.

 

win 10 will not shut down properly

Hi Richard,

Usually, this issue occur due to outdated or corrupted device drivers, services or processes which are not shutting down properly, or third-party programs that prevents your computer to shut down properly. For better assistance, we'll be needing additional
information:

• Have you made any recent changes on your computer prior to the issue?
• Is this an error message Explorer\windows\settingsync\BackgroundUploadTask? If yes, where are you getting this message?
• If possible, can you send us a screenshot?

Meanwhile, we suggest that you run the Power troubleshooter as an initial troubleshooting step. To run the Power troubleshooter, follow the steps below:

• Press Windows key + X and select Settings.
• Choose Update & Security from the list.
• Click Troubleshoot in the left pane of the window.
• Under Find and fix other problems, select Power
  and click Run the troubleshooter.

We'll keep an eye out for your response.
