    Also, with Windows 10 fast startup enabled the computer will not actually 100% shut down. It is more of a hybrid hibernation state and thus, when restarting, it will skip the point of the very initial phase where you can enter bios with whatever hotkey the manufacturer has assigned.

    To 100% shutdown with Windows 10 fast startup enabled you hold down shift key while clicking shutdown.
