No, I don't use WOL, and I've never changed any settings related to it, not in BIOS nor in network adapter properties, that's why it was so strange to me that this suddenly started to happen. Anyway, it seems that the rebooting problem ain't happening anymore so I'll leave the "green solution" on for now. I don't have any reasons not to as you said. Thanks again.

I unchecked that "allow this device to wake the computer" box and it stopped rebooting. Now I checked it again to set the ErP to enabled and didn't reboot either. Now with the ErP enabled it doesn't reboot either. I don't know what's going on but I'll let you know if it happens again. Thank you!

Swear to god I can´t find it. And I've looked several times.

My BIOS doesn't have that feature, I guess I can do that by disabling the box "allow this device to wake the computer" on properties of the network adapter(?)

I turn the switch off everytime now to avoid facing the problem. I only don't do it when I forget or when I want to check if the problem is still happening.

So this has been happening to me for the last few months. At first I didn't pay attention to it, I thought it would fix by itself but that hasn´t been the case. Everytime I try to shut down my PC, no matter what method I use, it shuts down, stays off for two seconds and then,it automatically reboots. This usually happens only the first time I shut it down but this could happen 2 or 3 times. Eventually it turns off and stays off. When the PC reboots I always get the DistributedCOM error at the event viewer(in case that's helpful). I've tried every method I've come across to fix this but it has been useless. Any ideas?

Alright, I'll definitely go with a clean installation. Thank you so much, your answer was really helpful.

Hey guys, I have what I believe is a dumb question but I want to make sure I'm doing this right. I have an MSI laptop with a 128 GB SSD that I want to upgrade to a 512 GB one. Thing is the OS is installed in this drive and I want to know if I just have to replace the ssd and the bios will automatically have the windows 10 key for the installation and I just need the ISO (or not even that) or if it is more complicated than that. I have 1TB HDD too.
