Windows 10: Shutdown Issue

Hi folks,

Recently (last 7 days approximately) my Windows 10 Pro (64-bit) installation has suddenly started hanging during shutdown.

I close all windows, click on 'Shut Down', the process starts OK then hangs at some point. Given that W10 is running off a SSD, shut-down normally takes around 10 sec.

This behaviour seems to have started after the latest updates were installed:

2020-08 Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.8 for Windows 10 Version 2004 for x64 (KB4569745)

and

2020-08 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 2004 for x64-based Systems (KB4566782)

both of which were 'successfully installed' on 13/08/2020.

I ran System File Checker which reported that it had found corrupt files and successfully repaired them.

I've also turned off Fast Startup in Control Panel > Power Options > System Settings and am now going to see if the issue is fixed.

Any further ideas?

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
