    yeah, just hold the power button down. You’ll catch it before it boots back up again

    Happens from time to time. I’m used to it though.

    And then you see “Getting Windows ready. Don’t turn off your computer.”

    Or I put it to sleep and have to start it back up to shut it down…

    Unless you’re still using an HDD as the OS drive, no problem for me. Even my humble WD Green NVMe can get me from boot to desktop in 30s pronto

    try spamming escape, sometimes works cancelling. Though still… sometimes it doesn’t work

    I just press the power switch. It shuts down my PC like normal instead of instantly switching it off

    The only time I did this by mistake I waited until the screen went black, and then promptly pulled it from the mains. Don’t have time for such bs.

    Restart, never heard of it. Now sleep or hibernate 👍
