Hi i recently counted how long it takes to shut down my computer. And it takes about 1 min -1.2 min and was wondering if that is normal? I have a Samsung 850 EVO 250gb SSD. And it takes about 10-15 secs to boot up.

Can someone tell me if that is normal please.

No that's not normal.  Does it take along time for the screen to go black, or does it go black fairly quickly and then stay like that for a minute or so?

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

It goes black after like 5 secs and then it stays black for a minute with the fans still spinning and the lights still on.

Try force shutdown with shutdown -s -f -t 0.

Your pc shutdown immediately? I didn't know this was a problem.

Have you disabled Fast Startup in power options? That feature of Windows 10 has been giving me a massive headache on every PC I've worked on that had it enabled. Pretty much in Windows 10, it doesn't really shut down. It suspends everything and resumes when you power the PC on. You have to disable Fast Startup (I haven't noticed a difference a speed at all between enabled / disabled except my system stability is way better with it disabled). You can tell you have this enabled if you look at task manager and your system uptime is far longer than the PC was on for.

 

It's located in power options control panel. On the side bar, you should see "Choose what the power buttons do". You then click on that blue link "change settings that are unavailable" to unlock the checkboxes at the bottom. Then you uncheck "Turn on Fast Startup" and save changes. That should fix your issue. It did for me.

The fast boot option causes it to write the contents of your RAM to disk similar to hibernation so that when you bot back up, it only initializes some things and loads the rest off that bulk file.  It should improve boot speeds, in theory, but it makes shutting down much slower, so not worth it in my opinion.

How's it? Notice any difference? You'd be another victim of Windows' 10 Fast Startup if you see a difference.

Now it takes about 15-20 secs to shut down :) And still boots up as fast as before
