I have the latest graphic driver. There have been suggestions that turning off faststart might help but I cannot find where to do that on my system. It is not where the articles say it should be. (see screenshot). How do I turn off faststart?

Unable to turn off Fast Start on Samsung computer

I followed the first few steps; ADWCleaner didn't find anything. JRT deleted a couple of tasks and extensions, but nothing related to Fast Start or anything that looks like actual malware. My problem persists!

I don't see any programs listed named Fast Start, or anything else out of place.

I looked up this problem on Microsoft's forums too, and someone mentioned to run (on Admin Command prompt) >sfc/scannow. This is the result:




The problem remains.

Any other ideas? Thanks again, everyone, for the help.

 

Pc problem, randomly doesn't turn on sometimes.

Turn off Fast Startup

Hi Michel,

Please take note that you must be signed in as an Administrator to be able to turn fast startup on or off. Fast startup requires that
hibernate be enabled. If you disable hibernate, then it will also disable fast startup.

Steps on how to manually turn off the Fast Startup

• Open the Control Panel (icons view), and click on the
  Power Options icon.
• Click/tap on the Choose what the power buttons do link on the left side
• Click/tap on the Change settings that are currently unavailable link at the top
• If prompted by UAC, click/tap on Yes

If the option for turning off the Fast Startup is not available, then changing the registry key maybe required.

Note: Please note that configuring Registry key requires extra care as it might cause another issue with your system.

• Type RegEdit in the search field on your Task bar
  and open the Registry tool.On the left pane of the Registry window, locate
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Power.
• On the right pane of the said location, check if the HiberbootEnabled
  is available. If not, we need to create it by clicking the right key of the mouse, select New
  and click on DWORD (32 bit) Value.
• Replace it with the word HiberbootEnabled under Name
  column.Data value must be zero (0) that will represent as the Fast Startup is turned off.
• Restart the computer for the changes to take effect.

Steps on how to disable UAC in Windows 10

• Type UAC in the search field on your Task bar. (If the search field isn't visible, right-click the
  Start button and choose Search.)
• Click Change User Account Control settings in the search results.
• To turn UAC off, drag the slider down to Never notify and click
  OK.
• You may be prompted to confirm your selection or enter an administrator password.
• Reboot your computer for the changes to take effect.

We look forward to your response.
