Windows 10: Gpedit shutdown scripts on win 10 home?

ok i'm stuck on this problem: i want to run a sample file.bat when my pc shuts down. I have added gpedit.msc on my machine via some batch file and added my .bat script in there. For some reason it won't execute the script when i shutdown my pc. I think is because i have win10 home not pro so it won't let me run the script.

is there a way to do it anyway in win10 home?

Shutdown Script Not Working

Although the Ghacks article doesn't mention it specifically, have you put the script in C:\WINDOWS\System32\GroupPolicy\Machine\Scripts\Shutdown ? The other thing you can try according to this thread is disable faststartup ?

Thanks, I managed to solve the problem with your suggestion!
When I disable the fast startup (Power options -> Choose what the power buttons do -> Change settings that are currently unavailable), the shutdown script runs during both Restart and Shutdown. It seems that a full boot is needed to make the shutdown script being activated.
