Troubleshooting Windows 11 and Windows 10 ‘Update and Shut Down’ Function: Common Problems and Solutions

2023-07-31 08:10:45

In order to make it easier for users to update, Windows 11 and Windows 10 have always provided the option of “update and shutdown”. The literal meaning of course is to automatically shut down following the update is completed. However, those who have used it should have found that this function does not seem to be available. It often works normally, and there will be situations where you choose to shut down, but when you get up the next day, you can see that the computer is still on. If you have encountered it, you are not alone. Recently, foreign media found that many users have the same problem. Did you not turn off your computer following using Windows 11/10 “Update and Shut Down”? You are not alone, many people have encountered According to foreign media Windows Latest reports, recently they noticed that the update and shutdown function on Windows 11 or Windows 10 does not work, in most cases Windows will install the update and restart the computer, and It’s not a shutdown, so they checked the Internet to see if this is a common problem, and found that many users have encountered it. Not only is there a lot of discussion threads on the Reddit forum, but hundreds of users in the Windows Feedback Hub have reported this issue, and many people feel that this feature is causing a lot of trouble. If it won’t shut down normally, why should it have this feature? One user on the Windows Feedback Hub wrote “If you have to reboot anyway, why is there an option to “update and shut down”? I thought it would reboot a few times, then shut down abruptly, instead it turns out , I get to the login screen. It’s very inconvenient if I just finished my day’s work and don’t want to waste my computer at night” Also someone said this weird bug, it’s only 50% working, so he can’t believe whether he should continue to use it “Update and restart” option, sometimes you need to restart the computer several times during the update, but in the end it stays on the login screen. If I leave the laptop uncharged, it will run out of battery the next day: Windows Latest found that in Windows This is the case with 10 KB5028166 or Windows 11 KB5028185, but not every user can use the “Update and Shutdown” function, which is quite strange. In order to gain a deeper understanding of how this feature works, Windows Latest also asked a former Microsoft developer, who mentioned that it may be caused by the fast startup feature, which is intended to speed up the computer startup time. During the shutdown process, Quick Start will store some system information in a file, so that the system can be started more quickly next time. And this action may make the computer mistakenly think that it is going to restart instead of shutting down. Another reason is the update process itself. If you wait for weeks or months without installing an update, or if the previous update has not been fully installed, Windows 10 or 11 must be restarted to continue the installation. So on the whole, it seems that if the installed update requires a restart, the “Update and Shutdown” function may not work properly, because the computer may “forget” to shut down following restarting. There seems to be no solution at present, we can only see if Microsoft will improve this function in the future. Source: Windows Latest
