Cannot Log Out Or Restart Or Shut Down

Jan 23, 2016

Recently I started having a problem where after my computer is on for awhile, nothing that operates in the Metro UI will open or function at all. This includes the Start menu, any Windows 10 apps including Settings, Task View, the alt-tab interface, etc. I also cannot log out or restart or shut down, I can get to the options from Ctrl+Alt+Del but it just gets stuck on logging out and I have to do a hard reset.

Can't Shut Down Or Restart

Aug 14, 2015

Have installed win 10, but cannot shut it down or restart it, whenever I try to do so I get error message: page fault in nonpaged area (applecharger.sys) error. My main problem is that the solutions that I have found do not work for me, as when I search through win 10 search function I get only web responses.

All Files In Downloads Folder Gone After Restart / Shut Down?

Sep 18, 2015

So this morning, I turned on my PC to discover that my downloads folder is now completely empty (I had put a few folders and files in there and downloaded some programs, all gone now). Even shortcuts that I placed on the desktop have disappeared, and I had to re-sign in to Chrome and import all of my bookmarks again. Last night I had accidentally clicked on restart instead of shut down, as they are so close together. I don't know if this could have contributed to the issue. After waiting for it to come back on I shut it down.

I'm just wanting to know what could have caused this, and how to fix it if possible. Definitely don't want it to happen again, and not sure if it's a Windows 10 issue or a fault with my PC. Should mention that I only recently bought this computer and it came pre-installed with Windows 10.

Solved by restarting again...still somewhat worrying that something like that could happen though.

Critical Stop Sound Sometimes On Shut Down Or Restart

Aug 16, 2015

Sometimes when I power down or restart I get a sound that is usually used when there is a problem. I looked up the sound and its the standard "Critical Stop" sound. This only happens sometimes but even if it does occur the system still either shuts down or restarts properly.

Critical Stop Sound Effect When Shut Down Or Restart Before Screen Turns Black

Sep 24, 2015

Sometimes, when I shut down or restart Windows 10 64-bit, just before the screen turns black it makes the critical stop sound effect. It does not effect anything, the whole shut down process is like 3 seconds, which I really like in Win 10.

Nevertheless it bugs me a bit, I also had this sometimes in Win 7. I'm not running any programs while shutting down, it would notify me if I did.

Performance :: System Will Not Restart From Restart Selection On Start Menu

Nov 13, 2015

I upgraded to Windows 10 everything seems to run fine but system will not restart from the restart selection on the start menu. Windows update will not reboot automatically either. System looks like it is going to reboot, everything shuts down but as system trys to restart everything freezes. Only way around it is to do a hard shutdown by holding the power button. Updated graphics card,hard drive and bios but still no luck.

Stuck - Install Requires Restart But Doesn't Progress After Restart

Jan 15, 2016

I am upgrading a computer from Windows 7 to Windows 10. I completed the download, and got a message that the computer needed to restart to continue the installation. However, when I restart and the computer comes back up, the same message appears and the installation does not progress. When I go to check Windows updates in the control panel, it says it can't check for updates because another installation is in progress. I have restarted the machine multiple times with no progress - can't go forward, can't go back.

PC Won't Shut Down Sometimes

Mar 8, 2016

Fresh built PC only about a month old. Runs amazingly but for some reason when I want to turn it off, it will not shut down and I need to hold the power button to shut it off. I'm afraid of eventually damaging components by shutting it down this way. Sometimes it works just as it should and others I have to hold the button to shut it off. Sometimes it will go to the swirly "I'm shutting down" screen but will just stay there until I hold the power button. My power button is setup so 1 press should shut it down, but when it's not going to Shutdown the power button does nothing unless I hold it to shut it off.

HP Won't Shut Down

Aug 23, 2015

My HP simply won't shut down! I choose the "shut down" option; it appears to shut down; screen goes black; but power like and wifi light stay on! I have to press the power button to shut down entirely - as it used to, properly before the windows 10 upgrade. Feel like moving to Apple Mac!

Unable To Shut Down?

Dec 5, 2015

My laptop pc with Windows 10 Pro has decided that when given the order to shut down it will do so, but then after 5 seconds or perhaps up to 15 minutes later it will reboot. Something is telling it to restart.

I have already done this to try to stop it: In the elevated command prompt, copy and paste the command below, and press Enter.

powercfg -h off

Bootmenupolicy Ignored After Shut Down

Dec 13, 2015

My BCD is configured as follows:

Code:
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.10586](c) 2015 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.C:WINDOWSsystem32>bcdeditWindows Boot Manager--------------------identifier {bootmgr}device partition=DeviceHarddiskVolume1description Windows Boot Managerlocale en-USinherit {globalsettings}default {current}resumeobject {13c1c520-8ae7-11e5-8068-942956f812f0}displayorder {current}

[Code] ....

If I Restart to switch between operating systems, I get the Legacy boot menu every time. However, after I Shut Down and then power on the system again, I get the Metro boot menu. The Metro boot menu is butt ugly and also causes a second POST cycle when I switch to Ubuntu.

How to correct this behavior? I find that if I Shut Down from Ubuntu, I get the Legacy boot menu after power on. It is only when I Shut Down from Windows that I get the Metro boot menu.

Computer Does Not Shut Down

Aug 3, 2015

I recently installed windows 10 in my computer, but i got a problem : my computer does not fully shutdown when i click the shut down button in the start menu, it just closes apps, screen turns black, but the pc is still on and i can say this because keyboards lights are still on (power one, wifi one) and i am forced to press the power button for 5 seconds to force a shutdown and then turn it on again. I searched on internet some solutions and the most common problem seems related to the fast startup feature.

Can't Shut Down Properly

Aug 15, 2015

When I first recieved my laptop, it was running Windows 7. I did the Windows 10 update, but found the boot time to be slow, so I installed Windows 10 from scratch (well, kind of. I left my Linux partitions [Which I installed long after I got the laptop but before the Windows 10 update] untouched). That's when I first noticed the problem: Whenever I tried to shut the laptop down, it would go through the motions, and then I would be stuck with the laptop monitor turn off but the laptop still running. I can't use fast boot or hibernate at all unless I cancel it out by taking out the power and battery and hold the power button for a minute.

Not Shut Down Properly

Sep 11, 2015

Since upgrading to Windows 10 Pro, I remain perplexed about this one issue that is plaguing my system:

Almost every shut down is reported in the Windows 10 Reliability Monitor as the computer was not shut down properly. This happens on both shut downs and restarts using the Start - Power options. The only time this appears not to happen is after a restart after installing updates.

I first saw this after an upgrade install over Windows 7 Pro. I then installed clean using a USB ISO and I ended up with the same thing. I then installed from a Microsoft original Windows 10 Pro DVD and again, ended up with the same thing.

This happens before I install any software at all, including antivirus. The system appears to run fine and there is no error message on the next boot to say that the system was not shut down properly. It is only apparent when checking the Reliability Monitor. It currently has so many failed shut down reports that it is tracking around 1 on the graph since day one.

I ran sfc /scannow and there are no integrity violations. My Device Manager shows no problems. Msconfig shows the system is set to Normal Boot.

I did not use the Mother board CD to install drivers as many of them are outdated and probably incompatible with Windows 10 anyway. I installed the most current drivers on the Asus website. I have the most current driver for my graphics card off the Nvidia website. Same with my Logitech G110 keyboard and R.A.T.5 mouse - the only other items plugged into the PC. I do have the Corsair H100i CPU cooler attached also but I don't think that requires a driver? Anyway, I did install the Corsair Link software and it also made no difference.

I am thinking that this is a hardware issue related to a missing or incompatible driver for the motherboard which is an Asus Hero Maximus VI [ROG]. It can't be a fault with Windows after three install's from different media. It can't be a fault with any software on my system as it happens on a brand new install of Windows.

Still Running After Closing Lid And Shut Down

Aug 31, 2015

I have noticed this problem come up on my Dell 7537 (Check out my profile for details) when I close the lid to put the computer to sleep, the HDD light turns off, but the fan continues to run, even after several hours. When I open the lid back up, it is just a black screen where I have to hold the power button to do a hard reset. The same thing happens with initiating a shutdown sequence, although that one only does it some of the time.

Performance :: Slow Shut Down

Feb 23, 2016

I'm a huge fan of the Windows 10, I love it, however recently I've gotten my first glimpse of the buggy side. The computer (pretty decent) is taking a very very long time to shut down. I just let it be, maybe update or something, however it kept doing it. After a few days I checked the event viewer, and I had quite a few of errors.

The main error (that I think, I'm no computer expert) that is causing this domino effect is a distributed error, CLSID and APPID. I've tried many solutions out there, and none seem to work.
