When attempting PC shutdown, the PC will appear to shut down. However, this the shut down process never completes and the PC remains in a low-power state that still consumes resources. This is characterized by power lights staying on, and in laptops, battery drain still occurs. This is caused by a strange interaction between INtime and the Windows shutdown process.

The solution is a simple registry edit, and was provided by Tenasys:- In Registry Editor, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\rtif\Parameters and locate a value called "Flags"
- OR-in the value 0x00000020 with the existing value. (eg 0x00000005 becomes 0x00000025)
- Shutdown and restart the computer to verify Windows shutdowns correctly.
One reporter states the issue persisted, and they needed to do the following: - Disabling INtime's automatic start
- Restart once without INtime ever being run
- Restart once after manually running and stopping INtime
- Restart once after manually starting (but not stopping) INtime
- Setting INtime to start automatically and restarting with INtime running
