  1. Cannot Shut Down


    I am currently on Windows 10 Home Single Language 64bit Edition 2004 May 2020 Update.

    after I installed May 2020 update some other updates were also installed including the cumulative update.

    I tried to shut down but it doesn't work Windows automatically restarts and the power & hard disk light never turns off.

    Turning off the fast boot option in power menu fixed the problem but with that boot time increases dramatically.

    also if left in sleep mode for some time system freezes and I have to force power off using the power key.

    Any solution to this problem other than turning off fast boot?


    I have already tried using SFC /SCANNOW & DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /Restorehealth but nothing happened.
