Windows 10: PC does not fully shut down.

Hi all,


I've got an odd situation that I haven't been able to find a solution. As of a couple of days ago, when I click on my PC to shut down through the start menu, *Windows* will shut down, but my hardware seems to remain active. This does not happen all the time though, it does on occasion and it seems to do so without fault on the log in screen. Does anybody have any ideas on how to fix this, or ways of troubleshooting this?


Thanks for any advice!

:)

 

PC wont shut down fully

By what Nammy states, its built into the PSU.

If you hit the power to shut down, wait a few seconds, does it fully shut down?

 

PC not fully shutdown

I've PC of lenovo model m91p i5-2400 win-10-pro 64bit.

There is a very weird problem when I shut it down.

When I shut down via the regular way (start- shut-down) it shut down the PC but it leaves the power led on, and the only way I can shut it down completly is to press and hold for 7 sec.





But, in two cases, the PC is fully shut down (the power led turn off)-

1. I give a command of "shutdown -s" via the cmd.
   
2. When I shut down the windows have updates, so after the updates it fully shut down by itself.
   

This is a very weird problem and I realy have no idea what to do!

I'll be thankful for any kind of help...

 

Windows 10 Pro (fully updated) will not shut down properly

Hi Chayan,

I appreciate if you could answer few questions to narrow down to the issue.

• What is the make and model of the computer?
• How exactly are you shutting down the computer? Is it from Start menu?
• Did you try shutting down by pressing and holding the power button?
• Did you make any recent changes to the computer settings?
• Did you plug any external device to the computer?

I would like to inform you that it is bit difficult to pin point on the exact reason behind the issue unless we get the answers for the questions asked above.

As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to press and hold the power button and check if the computer able to shut down completely.

If the issue persist try unplug plug the charger\power cord from the power source and check if the issue persists, this may also arise due to any fault in the power source.

If the above steps doesn’t work, I suggest you to check if the fast startup option is enabled.

• Access control panel by right clicking on the Start menu.
• Choose Power options.
• Select Choose what the power buttons do and check if it is enabled.(Disable it if enabled)

Please let us know if you are able to shut down the system properly after following the above steps. If the issue persists, please reply with the required information. We will be glad to assist.

Thank you.
