  2. computer taking 2 or more minutes to shut down

    Hi Donny,

    A corrupted system file or an issue with your startup drivers may prevent Windows from shutting down. Answering the following questions may help us in resolving the issue:

    • Were there any changes made to your computer prior to the issue?
    • Do you always get an error message/code? If yes, what is the exact error message/code?
    • Were you able to install all pending Updates on your computer?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you already performed?

    Regards.

    Very slow booting and shutting down (tens of minutes)

    When I turn off the computer, it takes appr 7 minutes(!) to show booting screen with an option to enter BIOS. During those 7 minutes, there is only a black screen with static (not blinking) underscore symbol. After those 9 minutes, the computer boots additional 2 minutes. Previously (just 3 days ago) the whole booting took around 20 sec.
    The similar issue is with turning down the computer, except it takes around half an hour. When I click the turn-off computer, the computer doesn't show any signs of doing so. I can normally work. After appr 10 minutes, the computer shows turning-off screen and turns itself down normally, except it does so for a very long time (tens of minutes) before it finally goes down.

    How it started
    The problem started 3 days ago with shutting down a computer. I have clicked shut down the computer. Windows showed "turning off" screen with the progress of some update. I wasn't aware the Windows updated but I didn't care much. The shutting down took several minutes (as it sometimes happens, so I didn't consider it as a problem at all). The following morning the computer booted very slowly for the very first time.

    I am especially worried about that several minutes before the BIOS screen. It makes me think that re-installation may not fix the issue.
    Any suggestions on what should I test or try? Thanks a lot for any help

    I have tried to restart the computer several times. I don't use "fast start up" option or hibernation (I always boot fresh).
    I have tried to search for Windows updates (no updates).
    I don't use any external antivirus. I use only default MS Defender with all suggested options turned on.
    I have not yet flashed the latest firmware for my motherboard. I was waiting for advice to avoid making the situation worse. Programs seem to work normally and I haven't noticed any slowing down.
    I don't see any suspicious activity in Task Manager either (I am not an expert so I have only checked it there is anything which would consume lots of RAM or CPU power).

    • Microsoft Windows 10 Professional (x64) Build 19042.804
    • APU: AMD Ryzen 3 2200GE
    • no dedicated graphics
    • 16GB RAM (2GB are dedicated for integrated graphics)
    • SSD (the system has 200GB SSD with over 80GB free space) + additional HDD for data

    My computer is shutting down every 45 minutes or so with BSOD eror

    windows will shut down in less than a minute

    I'm referring only to fast shutdown tweaks under Step 13 of the linked tutorial.
    My computer is shutting down every 45 minutes or so with BSOD eror notesmall10.png
    Note 13. Speed Up Windows Shut Down Time You can set and adjust the AutoEndTasks, HungAppTimeout, WaitToKillAppTimeout, and/or WaitToKillServiceTimeout values for how long Windows waits for hung programs and other programs to save data and close before shutting down. I'm not suggesting anything else relating to fast startup or whatever. Those Step 13 tweaks don't affect reboot or updates. Example: Improve startup &amp; shutdown using registry settings
