Procedures even may be different for Linux and Windows, depending on the

i have exactly this problem to deal with on *nix... my app needs to be
allowed to complete its shutdown closeout procedures or there are problems on
the next boot when it is started up... on shutdown, app managed data is
removed from a living data file to another file for restoration on startup...
this takes longer than 5 seconds and it hurts at times when the system
sigkills the app :/
Why not just rename the file and do the cleanup on startup ?
