"ShellconHiddenWindow" Unmasked
I am a relatively new subscriber to LangaList. I often get the message "ending the program ShellconHiddenWindow" when I turn off my computer. I don't know what this is. I can't find it anywhere. Do you have any ideas as to what it
might be?
Your shutdown issue most likely is caused by a program called MusicMatch Jukebox, which is a music playing application. It might have come with your PC or ISP service (it's called "Dell Jukebox by Musicmatch" when it comes with Dell PCs and "Earthlink Jukebox by Musicmatch" when bundled with Earthlink services). Like many applications, MusicMatch Jukebox loads portions of itself at startup by default--- in this case, an executable called mimboot.exe.
The quickest and easiest way to make your shutdown
message go away is to prevent mimboot.exe from loading in the first place. Run
MS Config by choosing Run from the Start menu, typing msconfig and clicking OK.
Click the Startup tab, deselect mimboot.exe and click OK.
That's the quick fix. A more thorough approach is to uninstall, or re-install,
MusicMatch Jukebox.
