    PC wont shut down, using start menu > shut down.

    My computer restarts if I shut down from the start menu.

    If I shut it down from the sign out > shut down however, it shuts down properly and doesn't restart.

    So my question is.

    What's wrong with my start menu > shut down?

    Is the the button itself?

    It's funny how the sign out > shut down does it's job. But the start menu doesn't and just restarts my computer.

    I've tried fixing it in many ways, I figured it was a power issue. I messed with my power and sleep and such options, even regedit and other areas.

    Nothing helped.

    I don't spot any errors or device problems. My updates are fine and I don't have any blue screens or anything. It's just the shut down command on the start menu that keeps restarting my computer.

    What I've been doing is start menu > shut down. Once it restarts I go to the shut down in the sign in screen and it shuts down.

    But I've just decided to not hurt my computer anymore and go to sign out> shut down since.

    I'll repeat once more.

    My computer wont shut down using start menu > shut down. It restarts.

    My computer shuts down, if i use start menu > sign out > shut down. Then it shuts down properly and wont restart.

    What's the problem?

    Can't shut down my Dell Laptop (intel) with Shut Down button.

    I fixed this on Windows 10 Pro 1709 in a new system by going into the BIOS and changing the Boot order.

    I have all SSDs in my system but the boot SSD drive appeared twice with a Windows Boot manager as the first name.

    So I changed the Windows boot manager located on my Boot drive to the second drive and the boot drive (the same drive I know this is confusing) as the first boot choice.

    Don't ask me why this worked, but it did!

    Onward!

  5. I Shut down by right click on the app in the left hand corner then scroll down to shut down or sign out
    Or you can choose power option or lid option
