Verbose Status

The whole story

If you have trouble with slow startup, shutdown, logon, or logoff, you might try this procedure.


This setting allows you to configure Windows so that you receive verbose startup, shutdown, logon, and logoff status messages!

1. Go to Run and enter Regedit
   
   
2. Find or create the key in
   
   

   HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\CurrentVersion\Winlogon.

   
   
3. To enable verbose status messages create a new DWORD value called "verbosestatus" and set it to "1".
   
   
   
4. In order to see the messages, an additional value called "DisableStatusMessages" should be set to "0".
   
   
   
5. Restart Windows.
