At this point, that's really all one can do, but that's still a privacy risk. The purpose of shutting down a computer is to kill all tasks/documents and have them pop up again. If you want that, then...

That comment is from a thread regarding a Windows Insider build. We're on The Fall Creators Update version 1709 which is different from the build mentioned in that thread

I don't think this is a feature. It's not happening to enough people apparently and there's no documentation anywhere stating that this is a new function in version 1709.

I'd like to think that...

I tried the nuclear option, installed Windows 10 fresh from an ISO created on a bootable USB drive. The problem was not resolved.

It's not limited to browsers. If I open a Word, Excel, Outlook or even Task Manager document and type anything into it then shut down/restart, the computer not only doesn't prompt me to save, but the...

Haha that's good! Anywho I've opened a case with Microsoft on the matter. I figure that the more I bug them about it then just maaaaybe someone will make a fix for this.

Both of my computers and my friend's computer do this. This is a potentially huge privacy risk especially if you deal with confidential documents. Does common sense not occur to Microsoft or...

I recently registered my device via the devices screen. Gonna see how that turns out. It'll probably make me verify my identity again by the time I wake up... And no language or region settings were...

The "fix" I applied failed. Worked for like... A day. Now my next fix is getting a refund from Microsoft and taking my business elsewhere since this issue also seems to cause more problems down the...

Thanks, I've stumbled across a method that seems to have worked as everything went to normal immediately after I applied the fix. Still testing for now, I'll know in a couple hours and then try the...

If that was the case, I'd do that, and my problem would be solved and I wouldn't be posting threads here, but I don't get a next screen, I'm not prompted for anything else. It specifically asks for a...

So basically after a certain amount of time, when I reboot my Surface Pro 3 or sometimes even leave it running for that long, I wind up getting hit by an error that says that I need to verify my...

So when all of the troubleshooting and testing and whatnot failed to indicate anything was wrong, it turned out that just reinstalling Windows 10, or in my case upgrade installing over it with...

This isn't the first time I've installed Windows 10 on this machine and the other times, it was just fine. No issues seem to be present with drivers either and I'm aware of Windows 10's automatic...

Okay this thread is about problems relevant to the entire computer shutting down abruptly during startup. Start a new thread for that since your issue isn't relevant to this one.

I have a Sabertooth 990FX motherboard. This isn't the first time I've installed Windows 10 on this computer (I was having issues with a corrupted operating system before, so I've reinstalled Windows...

Nope, WinCDEmu is not installed on my systems. I already fixed the problem by upgrading and doing a fresh install along the way. I've done that before though, so I don't know what made a difference...

I managed to install Windows 10 successfully and run sfc /scannow with no corrupted files. I've set up restore points after each change to the system and will be monitoring it closely. It would...

I've now noticed that sfc /scannow shows that I have corrupted files even after resetting Windows 10. Seems a little strange that this would happen after a fresh install. A technical support agent...

I've noticed that upgrading Windows 7 to Windows 10 results in sfc /scannow showing corrupted files that it can't repair. I'm current;y restarting windows via the special boot menu (hold shift while...

Oh and clicking on any of the right click menu items when I right click on the start button doesn't do anything either.

Yeah, I talked to Microsoft about this one and they have no idea either. I think it might have something to do with the upgrade. I also tried upgrading Windows 10 to Windows 10 to avoid program loss,...

I just tried that, I only have one instance of task manager running, but I went ahead and restarted it anyways. I'm guessing that this may have something to do with the corrupted files that sfc...

Is anyone having the issue where you open your jump list in File Explorer and then click on something like your Videos or Downloads Folder to have the jump list close like normal, but then nothing...
