1517 Warning every shutdown/reboot

This post is made after reading as many posts on this subject 1st. However,
it seems there is at least one other symptom, in my situation, that is a bit
diffrent from the others that I read.

I believe that my registry is not clsed because some application(s) is(are)
"stuck" at startup and continue being stuck until shutdown. After loading at
least one update on my pc, at least two applications no longer show in the
systray. They show as processes running however. And of course, I have the
famous 1517 warning regarding the registry. These two symptoms are definitely
linked.

So.... can someone help me with this? I think I need to have a way to trace
what is going on at startup. Is there a way to track of log it? Am I on the
right track?

UPHCleanup Service removes this error. It is caused by a service
running under the user credentials instead of system credentials thus
giving an error when the system tries to unload the user profile. This
service works by handling the problem instead of just waiting for
timeout.

If my memory serves me correct.

If you see a lot of Userenv/1517, Userenv/1524 or Userenv/1500 errors in the
Event Viewer, download and install the User Profile Hive Cleanup Service.

This decreased my shutdown time a bunch. Takes any where from 10 to 20
seconds to shutdown.

C:\Program Files\UPHClean\uphclean.exe is added.

The User Profile Hive Cleanup service gets added to Services and
uphclean.exe wiil run all the time. I am one that doesn't like to have any
extra services running, but I am sold on UPHClean.

Download details: User Profile Hive Cleanup Service
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

UPHClean v1.6d readme.txt
http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...5ac/readme.txt

You can screw around and try to trace the problem if you want.

"Windows saved user ROADWARRIOR\The Hobbit registry while an
application or service was still using the registry during log off.
The memory used by the user's registry has not been freed. The
registry will be unloaded when it is no longer in use.
This is often caused by services running as a user account, try
configuring the services to run in either the LocalService or
NetworkService account."
