    Change power button to 'Update and shutdown'


    Hello,


    The situation right now is that when i press the power button my computer shuts down and thus ignores the pending updates.


    I would like to configure the power button to automatically update my computer and shutdown.


    I am using:

    Edition: Windows 10 Enterprise 2016 LTSB

    Version: 1607

    Build: 14393.2791


    Kind regards, Dominic

    :)

    Windows 10 shutdown power still light and fan still working

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that the laptop will not shutdown completely. We will help you.

    I suggest you to try the below steps and check if it helps you.

    • Remove all the externally connected devices and cables including the battery.
    • Hold the power button for about a minute and release the power button.
    • Connect only the power cable and power on the PC.
    • Check if the issue persists.
    Keep us posted to help you better.

    Shutdown restart switch has stopped working in Windows 10

    Hi Mike,

    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. I will certainly help you with this.

    I appreciate if you could answer few questions to narrow down the issue and to provide you better assistance.

    • What happens when you press Shutdown/restart (power) button?
    If notebook is in off condition, I suggest you to connect your notebook with power cable and allow it to charge and then try to press the power button and check if issue is solved.

    If you’re notebook is in ON condition, I suggest you to set “Choose what the power button do” to Shutdown and check if it helps. To do so kindly follow the below given steps:

    • Press Windows key + X key and click on
      Control Panel.
    • Under all Control Panel items select Power Option.
    • Click or tab on Choose what the Power button does
      in left panel
    • Select Shutdown under “When I press power button” and click on
      Save Changes.
    Check if this resolves the issue.

    Hope this information helps. Post back with updated issue details for further help.

    Thank you.
