Ok, so I tested...

[quote]
Have you tried pressing yes on the Beta ?[/quote]

Yes, after that running Final Countdown again, same result, not shutting down, giving me the same error mesage again. "Seems like there is a problem with your Windows Files..."

[quote]
If yes and it still did not solved the problem can you please to run Final Countdown with administrator rights ?[/quote]

I'm always logged in on Windows as admin and this XP install only has admin account, so this can't be the issue.

Here's the recent log:

btw, in the meantime I'm using another shutdown program called "Easy Pro Shutdown" and it works without problems, so I guess it has to be something specific to your shutdown process.

Thank you

Hi,

thanks a lot for your reply and sorry for getting back to you so late.
I'll try your suggestions and get back to you soon.
Since I know now someone is actually listening, let me also say thanks for the Final Countdown. While there are of course other shutdown applications yours I like best and feature richest, so it would be nice getting it to work. :)

We'll see...

Anyone listening ?
Has development stopped for Final Countdown ?
