Fix shutdown failure. 15 Apr 2019
This problem has been with my laptop, Flatbeast, since a Windows update
a year ago. Flatbeast would not shut down all
the way in software. Right click on the
Windows icon,( lower right hand corner of screen) select "Shut Down or Sign Out" and then select "Shut down" and Win 10 would
tell you he was shutting down and the screen would go dark. But the LED in the power button would stay
on. You could not restart with the power
button. Only way to get the machine
running again was to hold the power button down for the count to 9, and wait
for the LED to go out.
Fix. Turn off
"fast startup". Here is how. Go to control
panel. Select System and Security. Select Power options. Select "Choose what the power button
does". Select "Change settings
that are currently unavailable. Uncheck
"Turn on fast startup" .
Finish up by clicking on "Save Settings". Done. Now
clicking on shut down makes Win 10 really shut down. Another Micro$oft "feature" fixed.
