Hi,
I'm seeking some assistance for the above, "Waiting For Background Programs To Close".
1. Searched for a 'keylogger' and found nothing.
2. Checked registry value as that being '0'.
3. Used Ccleaner
4. Checked event logs.
5. Checked Task Manager to see all running programs. Could not locate any unknown programs running, (blank). Checked the processes and found mostly Google Chrome taking the most percentage.
6. I've tried practically everything, short of 'recovery'.
Is this a hardware or software issue, and could the lag be associated with a 'stubborn' program waiting to close? This facet just came about with no warning. No new programs were installed. Running Windows 7, i-5 650, 4gb memory. Symantec Endpoint employed. After viewing many technical forums, I notice this has been an ongoing issue for many years; some blaming Microsoft for the problem.
Any and all assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
This is Technical Forum Issues as in technical issues with the forum. Not a forum for general technical issues. So as cabri has already noted, you'll get a better response in the OS forum. Since you've already created a thread there, I'll go ahead and close this one.
