  1. Question about force shutting down windows


    So I had to force shutdown because for some reason when I shut down my pc last night it didn’t turn my pc off and it was still running but the screen was black. I know they force shutting down can corrupt the os so I turned it back on and ran sfc/scannow and it said that it fixed something, so am I all good now? Is there still corrupted windows files? Also can someone explain why when I shut down that it didn’t turn my pc off? Like the fans were still spinning and gpu rgb was still on. I’ve tested it like 2 times now and shutting of works fine now but why did it do this?

    :)

  3. PC does not shut down requires forece shut down

    Hello,

    We really appreciate your patience. Let me give you few more troubleshooting steps which might apply to your situation and ascertain the cause of the issue.

    • Try removing all the external peripheral devices including all usb drives except keyboard, mouse and monitor and check.
    • Try to shut down the computer while forcing the running applications and check the results in the subsequent restart. Follow the below steps.

    • Press Windows key + X, select
      Command prompt (Admin) to bring up elevated Command prompt.

    • In Command prompt type
      shutdown -s -f and press enter.

    If it still does not help, try to view the Event IDs in Event Viewer to check for specific events triggering the issue.

    To view activities in Windows, I suggest you to open the Event Viewer. To do so, follow the below steps.

    • Go to the Control Panel and choose to click on the
      Administrative Tools icon.
    • The above action will open up a new window of the Administrative Tools where you will see the
      Event Viewer.

    Please write to us with the results.

    Thank you.

  4. Question about force shutting down windows

    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.
