Power Led, and HDD led waits 1-1:30min after click the shutdown button to close. Is this normal on windows 10?

Chanmei1 · Feb 3, 2016

So i recently built my first pc, and i noticed that when i click the shutdown button the monitor will shutdown in like 5-7 seconds, but the desktop pc that has the power led and hdd led, fans, etc. is still on for like 1-1:30 mins before my whole system powers off.
Is this normal for windows 10? or is it because i have fast startup turn on?

My current pc specs are:
Motherboard: Asrock h97m pro4
Cpu: i3 4170
Gpu:msi gtx 950
Ram: corsair 2x4gb Low profile ddr3 1600mhz
Storage:1 tb seagate barracuda
PSU: seasonic m12ii evo 620w Bronze

A bunch of other people appear to be having the same issue. I do as well, W10, ASRock Fatality X99, 950 Pro SSD. W10 shuts down immediately, box stays on (for a while). Other posts mention this happening after a recent update.

It may be related to a fast start option.

Have you tried turning on the monitor as soon as it goes off to see if anything is displayed?
Here, have a read of this:

I don't PERSONALLY have any issue with the most recent windows 10 update

Depending on the machine, yes, this appears to be normal. Not certain what's causing the behavior, but I'm sure in time the source or sources of the behavior will come to light.

Does everything except lights turn off? Some of these motherboards have small system fans that run for a minute or so after shutdown to remove excess heat on motherboard. I just installed a Z97 Sabertooth Mark 1 USB 3.1 motherboard that does this. It's configured in the BIOS.

In the situations I have witnessed this, it's not due to heat. All of the systems I have experienced the behavior on are either passively cooled, or had no such tendencies before the upgrade to Windows 10. This is a Windows 10 specific behavior.

I have followed the instructions in the link I gave from youtube.

It worked. You need to disable Turn on Fast Startup from the shutdown options.

To summarize

1) Bring up Power Options (right click on Windows Icon Bottom Left)
2) Select Choose what the power buttons do (left margin options)
3) Select Change Settings that are currently unavailable
4) Shutdown Settings: Uncheck Turn on fast startup

Save changes and shutdown.
