disable windows 10 restart
i found, that after shutting down Windows, it restarts by hitting a key on the keyboard
i don't want that to happen
how can i achieve this?
Typically, this is a setting done in the BIOS, usually found under Power options or something like that. It's hard to say without knowing the manufacturer.
Some keyboards have the power on key as an option that still has to be set in the BIOS as mentioned in the wake on (LAN, KEY press...).
These actions will ensure Windows 10 has been truly shut down.
windows key + E, change the location to control panel, power options.....
in short, you have to use the older control panel power options.
%windir%\system32\powercfg
Under the services admin tool, stop the service that handles the windoss updates, and then set it to disabled.
This is I beleive what was said earlier.
The defer option hits a limit that MS update setting can override.
Is this correct? By the way my screen shot was from my laptop and there are minor differences to a desktop. But so long as Power Button shuts down, the machine should stay shut down.
Check the bios settings on whether it has wake in keyboard press...
other options are : snooze, sleep, no action, shut down screen
