Kill hanging apps:
Shutdown time
You'd better check your running processes and see if you can identify the app.
Looks like a lot of apps running as G,but none of them are viruses,malware,those are known apps...
I can't shut them off,because I need them.
It seems that it is linked to some DLL in WinSxS folder...still dunno how to get rid of it...

It’s a bug in the way the Blocked Shutdown Resolver pulls the name of the program blocking a shutdown, and “G” may result when there’s a GDI+ program (a program that draws stuff on the screen) that turns belly up as you’re shutting down.
