  1. Can't shutdown Windows 10


    I can't shutdown Windows 10, when I shutdown from start menu nothing happens, the computer just stay on. The only way to shutdown the computer is to hold power button on the computer case.

    Method I tried: Shutdown from CTRL+ALT+DEL, Shutdown using command prompt, Changing power setting

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    ShutDown button in desktop (Win-10)

    Hi Marcel,

    Thank you for your interest in Windows 10.

    You can create shortcut for Shutdown, restart and sleep by following the below steps:

    • First right-click on the desktop, choose New and then Shortcut.
    • In the shortcut location box, you’ll need to enter the correct command, which I’ve listed for you below.
    • For Shutdown type the below command:
    Shutdown.exe -s -t 00

    • For Restart type the below command:
    Shutdown.exe -r -t 00

    • For Sleep type the below command:
    rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState 0,1,0

    After you click Finish, you should now have a new icon that you can double-click to immediately shutdown, restart, or lock your computer.

    Hope this information helps, for further assistance please reply.
