It really takes time to shut down my computer.I found this way from someone and now my system shut down in seconds. Open the task manager you will see the shut down tab there click it.Hold the ctrl key and click Turn off. By this time your system will be off.It worked for me hope it works same for you.

Really, okay I will try to do it when I will shutdown my computer, but is it still the proper way to turn off our computers? Because I read an articles saying that improper way of shutting-down your pc can crash the software, corrupted files on your hard drive, and even making your computer not to boot up again. Well if it is safe then I will consider to do it. Thanks anyway for this trick.

Nothing of that sort has happened with me till now but only use when you are need of it.No one has ever said that his computer has been crashed due to this.But I also use this only when I really need it.I generally hibernate my system but can't to it it's showing an error.

well , i still havent tried this because it will take me too much for the computer to turn on, but i will totally try it when i shut down the computer later. thank you for sharing the tip. An another way to turn off the computer quickly is to hold the shut down button for 5 seconds and it will shut down very quickly. thanks for the tip again, ardi
