I want to run a python program/script before system shutdown (windows 10) I was searching for a folder like the startup folder but for shutdown I wasn't expecting to find a folder but tried it and I didn't found one so I wonder if there is any way to do it?

[How to schedule a task to run when shutting down windows](https://stackoverflow.com/q/101647/364696) (tagged for Windows XP, but gpedit.msc is still a thing on Windows 10, so it probably still works) and cross-site duplicate [How do I execute a script or program on Windows Shut Down](https://superuser.com/q/210122). Note that modern Windows implements a kill timeout when shutting down (possibly even just logging off?), two seconds IIRC, so if your script takes longer than that to complete, it may get forcibly terminated. – ShadowRanger Aug 23 '22 at 12:50
