Chapter 13. Startup and Shutdown > Conclusion
13.4. Conclusion
In this chapter, we've examined the detailed steps involved in starting and shutting down Windows (both normally and in error cases).

The final chapter of this book explains how to deal with an unusual type of shutdown: system crashes.
