It also guilt trips you with a bit of language that says you should and the universe will be a better place if you do. It's just psyching you out. Click "cancel." It won't hurt a thing. Really. It's just looking for bad spots on the disk. Closing it down is no different from closing down your browser or TurboTax or whatever else it is that you run on the computer. Life is too short to spend bullied by Windows. <g>
