Pending Rebot Status on many computers how to clear

All Windows Platforms  Windows 10  Windows 8.1 Windows 7 Windows 2012 R2, Windows 16, Windows 19

I run a script that reports pending reboots on each computer on my network.
I recently changed this script because the one I was using failed to connect to all my computers.  Needed Remote Registry Service running and other winrm issues.

I discovered this after trying to install Exchange Management Tools on my New Windows 10 Pro computer ,   It keep telling me I had a pending restart.

So after some digging and some help from you guys I found this  value in my registry that caused the problem

"PendingFileRenameOperations"  is the Key

I ran this command against all my computers and this is an example of what I found

PS C:\util> invoke-command -computer SERV027-n1 -scriptblock {Get-ItemProperty -Path 'Registry::HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager'}

Select all Open in new window

As you can see the PendingFileRenameOperations" key exists and has a value.

my report returns the SERV027-N1 is TRUE which means the Key exists.

After several restarts on different computers the Key remains.

Of all my computers only two show FALSE no Pending Reboot required.

I can delete the Key manually

I was able to delete the key using powershell

invoke-command -computer SERV001 -scriptblock {reg delete "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager" /v PendingFileRenameOperations /f}

Select all Open in new window

Question is why do I need to delete this key?  

A restart of the computer should clear this key correct?

Some install must have failed along the way.

How to I clear this?

Thank you

Tom
