Windows 10: Laptop will never shutdown fully.

Been having an issue for a while were my laptop acts like it's turned off, but upon "rebooting" it will show a run time of hours, days, even weeks. The only way to reset the run time is a full restart. Why does my computer never fully shut down when I tell it to shut down? It will act as though it has shut down, fans off, all lights off; then when I power it back on and check the run time, it will say it has been on for a day or two since whenever I last did a full restart. How do I get my computer to completely turn off?
