A app called 't' always tries to prevent reboots and shut downs. What is it?

Whenever I try to reboot or shut down my laptop, for a few seconds I see this message:   t This app is preventing you from restarting.   I've looked on the task manager but I can't find any apps...

    SOLUTION : Do you use Logi Options+ , in my case problem was Options+ when I uninstall it and install Options (which is older but have no issue with shutdown)  problem solved.

Hi,

This message is due to the Logitech software not shutting down the "logioptionsplus_agent.exe" at windows shutdown or reboot.

Use the Windows Task Sheduler to kill the "logioptionsplus_agent.exe" at shutdown or reboot.

Open taskschd.msc

Create new basic task

Make sure "Run with highest privileges" is checked

Tasktrigger - When a specific event is logged

Log - System

Source - User32

Event ID - 1074

Actions - Start a program

Command - C:\Windows\System32\taskkill.exe

Arguments - /f /im logioptionsplus_agent.exe

Thats it, it works I use it.

Nice solution, it's working so far!

I guess I should start learning more power user things since official software is getting worse in general.
