    Not shutting down properly


    Hi all

    Bit of a strange problem with Windows 10 on my desktop - it doesn't seem to shut down properly.

    I get the usual 'shutting down' screen, but (sometimes) when it turns back on it's resumes at a stage maybe 30 seconds before I switched it off.

    For example, if I was playing a video on YouTube in the evening before I shut down, when I turn on the PC in the morning (before I log in) the same video is already playing.

    Any ideas? It's really annoying!

    It is the "AutoLaunch" feature of Windows 10. You can disable it in the Settings app - Accounts - Sign-In Options.
