Solution

Check out your Windows Installation.
First try System File Checker
Winkey plus 'X'
Choose Command Prompt (Admin)
Type sfc /scannow then Enter

It finds and fixes errors in Windows, but doesn't always report them. Run it and see if the fault disappears after re-booting your system
If corrupt files are found that can’t be fixed, try

Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth (Observe spaces before /)

Re-run SFC

Laptops and me never get along very well. In a 6 year span, I've gone through at least 4 or 5 laptops. This largely due to gaming.


1) A trick to see if your battery is the issue is to take the battery out and keep it plugged in. If it boots up normally and fast, it's your battery.


2) If that's not the case, it could be a virus.

3) The laptop components are worn out and need replacement. In this case, I would just buy a new laptop. The replacement fee will cost more then the computer itself.

4) Reformat the computer. I like to do this to my computers/laptops at least once a year it give it a fresh start.

5) Windows issue (see #4) or hard drive issues. Again it may need replacement.


I hope that helps.

To view CBS Log

findstr /c:"[SR]" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log >sfcdetails.txt

Search C drive for sfcdetails.txt or navigate to C:\Windows\System32 and scroll down
If that doesn't succeed, try creating your own shutdown on the desktop.
Rt Click on desktop, choose 'New' 'Shortcut'
Type shutdown.exe /s /t 0 (Note the spaces!) Click 'Next' and 'Finish'
Double click the new shortcut to shut down your machine.
Note, this bypasses Fast Startup, so expect your Laptop to take about 5 seconds longer to boot...
