Windows 10: My PC comes back on after I shut it down

For the last couple of months, my PC restarts, even when I select Shutdown from the options. I turn it off manually when it does that. Tonight when I came home from being out for dinner, my PC was on, and there was a notification that MS had installed updates. I know with 100% certainty it was off when I left.

Do those bas***** at MS have a way to turn on my PC remotely? Is there something someone has put on my PC to keep me from shutting it off? I have run two anti-virus programs and a spyware program and none of them found anything.

Thoughts from the experts please

:)

 

Pc restarting itself after shut down - Windows 10 update

Since the Windows 10 update, my Lenovo PC restarts itself after I've shut it down. I shut down as normal and the PC goes off, then when I come back maybe 5 minutes later it has turned itself back on! How can I resolve this?

 

Problems after recent Window 10 updates

The pc restarts automatically about after 5 mins after I on the pc.. I'm using on the internet. No errors messages. It just restarts.. like I said I shutdown my pc normally. Then when I bring it up later it come back up with the internet and normally
comes up with what I was doing the last time I shut down the internet normally then shut down my pc normally.

Thanks for your reply.. any thoughts.

 

Might want to check your network adapter settings in device manager. I've heard of this before... I think yours might have something checked or selected that could keep your computer from shutting down... the exact words escape me right now, but it's something along the lines of "allow this device to keep computer on" I think.

 

Doesn't appear to be the issue.

 

Did you ensure that there are no "wake on" settings enabled in BIOS?

The only other thing I can think of, is that your motherboard could be damaged. Hopefully that's not the case.

 

I have no idea how to look at BIOS or what to look for.

 

For computer always turning on:
Power Options>Edit plan settings>change advanced powersettings>Sleep> Change settings to disable.
Network &sharing centre>change adapter settings>R click forProperties>configure>Power management, remove tick from allow device towake computer.
