✔ Best Answer

There is a known issue on some computers which prevents shut down all together. It might be the same cause, so it's worth trying. Go to Control Panel > Power Options > "Choose what the power button does" > "Change settings that are currently available". Uncheck "Turn on fast start-up". See if this helps (shut down a couple of times to test it). If it doesn't help, put the check mark back in and keep an eye on here for further ideas. Always pop back and let us know the outcome - thanks
