    Inexplicable restarts


    Thanks for your patient help and analysis, zbook. I'll step through some of your suggestions over the next few days - there's a lot to do and some look a bit hairy! That is, for a PC that is working sweetly right now...

    Phantom app preventing restart or shutdown on Windows 10

    Thanks for your reply.

    Your steps probably did help me do some housekeeping that may have been beneficial.
