    First boot fails to boot up


    I had this issue since day one. I figure I am in the right place and ask for the right answers.
    Pretty much every first boot after it being powered off for a while, it stays stuck on the splash screen. I would force a power off and restart it and it goes through with no problem. It may not seem a big of a problem but its the little-ist things that can bug me the most. I have a youtube link below to show what i am talking about.

    Hello Brian, :)

    As a test, turn off Fast Startup to see if that may be the issue. It can sometimes cause this issue.

    Holy Moly! Not only did it actually boot 3-4 seconds faster (ironic), but no issues at starting up. I will test more when my laptop is off for hours. For now, it looks like it has solved that issue. Idk why this would happen in windows 10

    Thanks Brink! You have saved the day once again.

    You don't really need Fast Start Up when using an SSD - it doesn't make much difference to boot speed and can cause problems as yu discovered. Fast Start Up of off on all my SSD based PCs.

    It was on by default. I’m glad to disabled it because not only did it fix my problem, but also booted a few seconds faster.
