Shutting down the computer.

Linux: tell it to shut down, so it does.

Windows:

Is there a way to have Windows 11 actually shut down? I noticed that Windows 11 does not actually shut down my laptop. If I use the Shutdown option on the Start menu I noticed that the following day my laptop is already at the logon screen when I open it and the battery is down 10-30 percent. I have tried even using a shut down script. Is there a way to force Windows 11 to do a full power off shut down?
After further digging around on the internet found out the issue is caused by "Modern Standby". After running a sleep study ("powercfg /sleepstudy" from an admin prompt) found out that my laptop is actually going from a full battery to 0% in roughly 12hrs. This is a "feature" in Windows as an actual (full power down) shutdown appears to be no longer supported. The two solutions are to put the laptop in hibernate mode (via command line) or disabling the power button via the control panel power options and holding down the power button until bios shuts off the laptop (on bootup windows will complain of an improper shutdown, but dealing with that prompt takes less time than plugging in the laptop and waiting 15-20 minutes for it to get enough charge to turn back on).
To disable Fast Startup go to In Control Panel, select Power options, and then Choose what the power buttons do. Then uncheck the Turn on fast startup checkbox. this is the setting to shut off if you want the laptop to act on rea shut down like it used too in windows 10, it is called fast start , shut it off

@richlv Linux: a stop job is running for no-idea-what-this-is.service

User has pressed ctrl-alt-del 7 times, forcibly doing literally nothing.

Watchdog did not stop!

🤣🤣🤣

(ok ok, it usually does eventually shut down)

@virtulis Haha, I've seen that :)

But it's not an intentional mess, it's nearly always a bug.
Come think of it, did it happen before systemd?
