Win 7 slow shutdown

Hello,
I'm running Windows 7 Pro (64 Bits) on a powerful laptop DELL Precision M6500 (12 GB RAM, Processor i7 quad core, SSD drives...). The MS Office applications are working fine, but the shutdown of Win 7 is very slow : more than 10 minutes.
What could be the causes of such a slowness?
Thanks

Hi,
A couple of things could be the culprit. First, please boot the computer in Clean Boot Mode to eliminate the causes of 3rd party applications and make sure all the drivers are up to date.
If the issue persists, you may refer to the reply by Andre in the following link to take a shutdown trace.
