Hello,
Since yesterday my PC has been stuck on "shutting down". I have tried several times to force it off manually (by pressing the power button), but even so, when I turn it back on, it just stays on "shutting down". I cannot access any functionality of my computer (I'm writing to you from my partner's laptop). What can I do? Can someone help me or do I have to take it to a repair shop? Thank you in advance, have a good day and a good week.

    Hello CarmelinaOttavia

    If it's a laptop, after shutting down, disconnect the cable, remove the battery and wait for 2 minutes, then put everything back together and restart.

    Avoid those so-called repair free software, they are of no major use. The best companions are Dos and Powershell..

        Hello again

        I think it might be related to a third-party software that the new Windows does not approve of, like antivirus or personal firewall. If not, consider uninstalling tools related to your laptop brand if they are no longer useful.
        One important thing is to perform the updates and let them install without opening any other applications during this process.
        Best regards

      Hello, I have exactly this issue and removing the battery does not solve the problem!! What can I do? Thank you very much for your help. I'm not very skilled in computer science and I need to finish an important job before tomorrow morning.
