Startup & Shutdown fix in PC Tuneup never completes

Hello Andy,
We regret for the inconvenience caused. To fix this issue, we suggest you to follow the instructions in http://avgread.me/1f5JYjW .Thank you.

Surprised there isn't more posts on this, also having the same issue, PAID version, stuck on fixing, restarted computer, now been stuck on fixing for 48 minutes. Restarted computer once more and still stuck on fixing. Fixes everything and gets stuck on Startup.

Hello Philip,
We regret for the inconvenience caused. Could you please let us know whether you have tried to restart the process after restarting your PC?
Thank you.

Tried the free one-time fix using PC Tuneup. All other sections completed but it has been stuck for over 45 minutes on "Startup & Shutdown".

Seems like the same problem as this unresolved post:

OK Philip, No probs… Pleased to see that you appear to be now sorted. Thanks for returning to the Community & posting. Please try to avoid double posts.

Finally cancelled operation and rebooted PC. After trying again the Startup & Shutdown section did complete quickly. Does not inspire confidence in your product.
