Windows 10 Shutdown - screen turns off immediately

Hello. I've been searching for a while on this and have not found a way. See, back during the Windows 7 days, when you shut down the system, it will log off and display the "Shutting Down" screen until it turns off power.

But on Windows 10, when you shut down the system, it will log off and immediately turn off the screen/display even though you can still see drive activity, clearly showing that it is preparing to do so.

Unfortunately, not everybody is running on SSD where shutting down is fast and almost instantaneous. There are still quite a few people running hardrives where shutting down a system takes some time.

I know this may not be a big deal however, i noticed some of my clients and customers would turn off power immediately the moment the screen goes out. This leads to numerous partition errors/problems and at times damages the hardrive.

Now is there are way to prevent windows 10 from turning the screen of immediately during shutdown? Thank you.

Hi,

It is like that since Windows 8, Users must use the System PWR Led to assess complete shutdown has been made.

How do they "Turn off" a system already in the process of shutting down ? Is the question.

If they do anything else but wait for the machine to shut off... They should suspect they are doing something wrong at some point, Windows certainly have run Chkdsk at startup multiples times, before complete corruption occurs.

If It brings customers in the shop... I think it's OK to have that kind of jobs. Repairing Windows + a little SSD Upgrade never hurts Both sides... And it gives you the occasion to give a little education in the process...

haha. yeah. I did notice this first on Windows 8. It's just annoying that i can't seem to find a way to do something about it. Wish every system had an SSD instead. And in this country, people are very fond of using AVR's and most of them immediately turn the power off the moment the screen goes black since that's how it's been during the early days of Windows, 7 and earlier. Now I keep telling them to pay attention to the power and activity lights. And if the system has a see through side panel, at least wait for the fans to turn off.

But yeah, i guess it does bring in some jobs in the shop. I just don't like people to blame me of not telling them. haha. Oh well. Thank you.
