Windows - Stop shutdown every hour

First download Windows PsTools.

This tool is provided by Microsoft for maintaining processes and services through command line.

We will extract all the contents of the zip file in C:\ drive into the folder PS (which we just created)

Open CMD in 'Run as Administrator'

c:> CD PS

c:> psexec -i -d -s cmd

Click- Agree on the license agreement dialog box
Then you will get another command prompt running under "nt authoriy\system"
To check if the command prompt is running under "nt authority\system"
 
c:> whoami
 
Then type,
c:> services.msc
 
Then services window will open.  

Select Windows licensing Monitoring and change the startup type to DISABLE.

After that restart the machine..

Where can I find shutdown logs?

In Event Viewer, select 

Windows Logs > System from the left pane. 

From the right, click on the Filter Current Log link. 

Type in 41,1074,6006,6008 into the box below Includes/Exclude Event IDs... 

Hit Ok. Windows then displays all shutdown-related events.
